1836 Coronet Head Cent. PCGS graded MS-63 Brown. Frosty light brown and tan with hints of underlying reddish tan faded down from mint color in protected areas. The surfaces are satiny and very attractive. A nick on the cheek, another in the field right of star 4, a very faint scuff that barely alters the frost in the field right of star 2, and a speck of carbon in the dentils right of star 12 keep this cent from a choice rating. LDS with the usual crack at OF-AMERICA plus a fine die crack from the dentils at the bottom of the reverse arcing up through the ribbon to CE and fading out just as it reaches the leaves above the left side of the C (in the latest state this crack passes through the wreath and the left upright of the D to the dentils above). In addition, there is rim cud break at star 1 plus a narrow but clearly defined (and previously unreported) rim cud break at the D in UNITED. The reverse is rotated 170 degrees CW, nearly upset head-to-head. Called MS60 and tied for CC#6 overall in the Noyes census, his photo #22935. Bland says MS60+ and CC#2 of the confirmed examples in his census. Possibly the finest known with the severely rotated reverse. Removed from an NGC slab graded MS65BN (NGC label included). Comes with an important provenance. Our grade is MS60. Pop 1; 1 in 65RB. Only 2 graded at PCGS for the variety. DWH #2627 (PCGS # 37123) . Estimated Value $1,250-UP. Ex Henry C. Hines-Floyd T.
