1805 Draped Bust Cent. S-267, B-1. Rarity-1. MS-63 BN (PCGS).

Choice Mint State 1805 Cent Provenance to 1897 1805 Draped Bust Cent. S-267, B-1. Rarity-1. MS-63 BN (PCGS). Breen Die State III, with clash marks on each side, faint reverse die cracks, and flowlines drawing the peripheral detail towards the rims. An alluring specimen with lustrous, deep brown surfaces and overtones of silver-blue and light olive. Frosty flowline luster covers the fields and imparts outstanding eye appeal. Only microscopic contact marks can be found, including a few over and around Liberty's chin, although none distract the naked eye. The toning is quite even and attractive overall, mottled undertones of reddish-tan are noted on the portrait and near the borders. Nicely struck for the date and variety with excellent definition throughout the entire portrait and only modest weakness on the upper leaves of the wreath, an unavoidable characteristic of this date. This is a lovely example at the MS-63 grade level, prefect for inclusion in a high grade date or variety set. The fine, old provenance only adds to the desirability, conveying the appreciation that many generations of numismatists have had for this impressive 1805 cent. Provenance: From the Alan J.
