1823 Coronet Large Cent PCGS MS65BN Unofficial Restrike Dan Holmes collection

Description: Welcome to Earlycoppercoins! I am the owner, Shawn A. Yancey, and I am a member of ANA and Early American Coppers, EAC #4647. I am pleased to offer the following item: From the 05/03/10 Goldberg’s sale of the Daniel W. Holmes Jr. collection of middle date large cents. This example was lot 181 and described as: “1823 Restrike MS60+. PCGS graded MS-65 Brown. Attractive glossy medium brown and chocolate. The fields are slightly reflective thanks to a fresh die lapping that left behind faint die polishing lines in the fields on both sides. A small spot of reddish chocolate toning in the field off the nose tip is the only mark. Very nice, close to choice. M-LDS with an additional die crack from the dentils left of star 1 to the chin and cheek where it meets up with the earlier bisecting crack. The obverse rim cud now reaches to over star 7, and the cud break is especially strong on this example thanks to being struck slightly off center to K-4. In fact, the cud was lightly smoothed in an attempt to make it appear more "normal." The earlier reverse die crack now clearly extends across that side to the rim at the R in AMERICA. Breen says pieces in this die state were struck beginning in 1879. Noyes photo #39278. Weight a hefty 176.0 grains. Our grade is MS60+. Pop 7; 4 in 66. DWH #0570 (PCGS # 81627). Estimated Value $1,000-UP. Ex Tony Terranova 1/30/89. Realized $1,437.50." This example made its way into the Bruce Miller collection, and then was recently sold by Heritage on 08/08/24 as lot #7044, which sold to yours truly for $2,040. This is a nice example with a nice pedigree – add your name next! Thank you for checking out this item!
