1816 Matron Head Cent. N-2. Rarity-1. AU-58 (PCGS). Lustrous dark brown with slightly reflective surfaces that display no distracting marks or spots, just a few tiny abrasions. Faint traces of slightly faded mint color surrounds some of the detail. A premium piece that could easily pass as Mint State and most likely came from the famous Randall Hoard that yielded many examples of this variety. PCGS# 36526. NGC ID: 224Z. From the John McBride Collection. Earlier from Goldbergs sale of the Dr. Philip W. Ralls Collection, January 2014, lot 703.
