- 1819 Matron Head Cent. N-8. Rarity-1. Small Date. MS-63 RD (PCGS). CAC.
This is an incredible example with full blazing Red surfaces and just a touch of bronze color atop the highest points. Instances of darker olive patina are scattered throughout and speak to the originality of this piece, whose survival can likely be attributed to the famed Randall Hoard of large cents discovered around the end of the Civil War and distributed throughout the late 19th Century. The complexion remains well composed beneath magnification and free from distracting blemishes. Fine satiny luster blankets the fields and subtly contrasts the more frosty and sharp design elements throughout. Incredibly attractive and impressively preserved. Among the finest examples of this issue with just 1 coin certified finer by PCGS.
Provenance: From the Collection of Thaddeus A. Tatum III. Earlier ex Kenneth Lee in the 1930's; Randle Fairchild, via Del Bland; Dr. Philip W. Ralls; Ira and Larry Goldberg's sale of January 2014, lot 721.
PCGS Population: 1; only 1 finer in MS-64 RD.
PCGS# 36651.
