1856 N-16/15 R2+ Italic 5 AU50A mint state cent that was lightly cleaned and nicely retoned glossy dark olive brown and steel with very faded red in protected areas on both sides. The retoning is attractive and could pass as original; note the prior NGC grade of MS65RB. Smooth with just a few marks including a light diagonal nick under star 2, another on the throat, and a third under the hair bun plus some small carbon spots on the bust. MDS, die state b. The earlier die lines under the 185 and star 1 are gone (this is Newcomb's #15). Removed from an NGC holder graded MS65RB (NGC label #286301-016 included).Certificate Number: Pedigree: From the Fred H. Borcherdt Collection
