1847 N-19 R1 Repunched 4 AU58
. A mint state cent that
has too many light contact marks on the face and neck for an
uncirculated grade. A thin vertical pre-striking planchet line on
the neck is the best identifying mark. Frosty light steel brown
with subtle overtones of light bluish steel in the fields and pro-
tected areas. About 5% of the original mint red remains visible,
mostly on the reverse, and an area of slightly darker steel ton-
ing is hidden in the curls right of the neck. EDS, die state a. The
die lines around ONE CENT are clear and the repunching on the
4 is obvious.
