1837 1C MEDIUM MS65 BN PCGS CAC

The 1837 Large Cent, Plain Cords with Medium Letters graded PCGS MS65 Brown and approved by CAC, represents the unified early and late die states of a single die marriage, identifiable on all known examples by the distinctive die crack running through STATES OF on the reverse. This Gem survivor presents a cohesive and attractive appearance across both sides, with smooth chocolate-brown surfaces animated by vibrant cartwheel luster and faint but traces of original red preserved in protected recesses that perhaps warrants a RB designation. With an estimated 3,000 survivors in all grades but few at GEM and this example distinguishes itself through its technical quality and eye appeal. This coin last traded over 4 years ago for $2,640 01/22 HA and then $2,880 09/22 EAC; however, a more recent auction comp was for another equally choice MS65 PCGS CAC that sold for $3,544 07/25 GC. Considering the last 3 MS65+ PCGS CAC have sold for $4,113-$6,463 with this example showcasing truly no hits or marks worth mentioning, we find this a great purchase.
