- Lot 10 1840 N-6 R1 Large Date with Repunched 40 PCGS graded MS65 Brown, CAC Approved.Highly lustrous tan and light olive with traces of very faded mint red showing on both sides. Satiny mint frost covers this cent and the eye appeal of this cent is outstanding. A subtle spot of darker toning on the chin, a puff of darker toning over star 4, and some more wisps of darker toning in the field left of stars 10-12 are the notable marks. Very sharply struck E-MDS, die state b. The repunching on the 40 is crisp but the early die line over RIC is gone and there are tiny rim cud breaks under star 13. A great cent, one of the sharpest examples seen of this variety. Our grade is MS63+, CC#9 in the Grellman census. The attribution and COL Ellsworth Collection provenance are noted on the PCGS label. PCGS population 1, 2 finer: 1 in 65+, 1 in 66. Estimated Value $2,000 - UP Ex Richard S. Herman (via Denis Loring) 1983-R. E. Naftzger, Jr., 1990 EAC Sale, lot 273-Tom Reynolds 1/1994-R. S.
