1850 Braided Hair Cent. N-7. Rarity-2. MS-65 RB (PCGS). CAC.
Far more Red than Brown, we note only a few faint, well scattered glints of flint-gray patina to otherwise vivid rose-red surfaces. Equally inconspicuous are some trivial carbon flecks that do little more than define the MS-65 numeric grade. Late die state, Grellman b, with flowlined fields and fading peripheral definition; this is the typically encountered state of the 1850 N-7 dies. An ideal offering for the high grade type collector, this PCGS/CAC Gem would do equally well in a late date large cent variety set.
PCGS# 1890. NGC ID: 226G.
From the Collection of James Allaire Millholland, 1842-1911.
