Glossy light steel brown. No corrosion or verdigris but there are several significant marks on both sides, and a dent at RI in AMERICA caused an obvious bulge at star 11. On the plus side the date is strong and most of the devices are clear. Graded VG8 net Fair-2 by Noyes, his photo #62480. Our grade is net Fair-2. This variety was unknown until 1984. It is easily identified as the only 1822 with the legend very close to the wreath, especially ME in AMERICA to the leaf below. This reverse was first used to strike the 1821 N-1 variety and it appears here in a later die state with a die crack across the lower reverse from the I in UNITED to the C in AMERICA. Apparently only a few were struck from this die pair before this 1821 reverse die was replaced and the 1822 N-8 strikes began. The obverse die is sharp and looks new. Arguably you could postulate this was probably the first variety struck using the 1822 date. Since the discovery of the 1822 N-14 variety in 1984 there have been 13 additional examples uncovered, and all are in relatively low grade. The finest is the 1984 discovery coin graded F12, and it brought $72,000 as lot #80 in our 9/2/2022 Early Cents Auctions sale of the Colonel Steven K. Ellsworth Collection. At present the 1822 N-14 is the rarest business strike variety in the 1816-1839 series of US Large Cents.
