1848 Braided Hair Cent. N-31. Rarity-3. Grellman State-c. MS-64 BN (NGC).Light steel brown with pleasing luster and traces of vivid mint red clinging to the stars, outlining the portrait and in the reverse fields. A couple of small spots are noted on each side with little effect on the overall eye appeal. Grellmans middle state of five described, with the reverse sinking and quite crumbled, making for an interesting study.From Walter Mustain; Harlan J. Berk, January 2016.
