1C 1848 PCGS MS65RB N-9 NAFTZGER

This is one of the many Naftzger coins we HIGHLY recommend if you seek to buy a single coin. It is really sensational in every respect! Even Naftzger’s hand written envelope calls the coin RED GEM! We’ll use the description from the Naftzger Sale:

Lustrous bright original mint red shifting to bluish steel and light olive on the high points, 80% of the mint color remaining. The only marks, and they are barely visible with a strong glass, are tiny specks of darker steel toning sprinkled over both sides and an extremely faint hairline in the field under star 4. A speck of toning inside the top of the C in CENT is the best identifying defect. Sharply struck EDS but not quite the earliest, die state a. The fine die lines from the dentils to the base of the second 8 are dull but still visible and the reverse is not cracked. Called MS65 and CC#3 in the Noyes census, his photo #30520. Our grade is MS65, tied for CC#2 in the Grellman census. Estimated Value $1,000-UP. Ex “Sheraton Collection”, lot 1705-Dr. Ken Sartoris (via Denis Loring)-Myles Z. Gerson-Denis Loring-Kenneth Goldman 7/24/80.

PCGS 21, NGC 13, CAC 2. This was lot 845 which Legend purchased directly from the sale and sold to the collector offering here. At the sale it brought a really reasonable $3,450.00. We were prepared to bid $4,000.00 hammer. Its got BOTH top quality and great eye appeal.
