1825 Matron Head Cent. N-3. Rarity-3. MS-62 BN (PCGS).Satiny light golden-brown surfaces are free of troublesome marks, leaving it to scattered carbon spots to preclude a Choice Uncirculated grade. Central detail is bold to sharp, although this coin is struck a bit unevenly, the 1825 Newcomb-3 having been plagued by the same loose die issue as seen on the N-2 coins of this date. The denticles are non-existent on the obverse from 3 to 8 oclock, although those on the reverse are essentially complete. A very early version of the Noyes State B obverse, with no evidence of the typical die crack that typically extends from the bust point to the rim.PCGS# 1642. NGC ID: 225F.
