Year: 1856
Type: Liberty Head (Braided Hair) Large Cent
Variety: Slanted 5, N-14
Grade: ANACS MS 62 BN
Mintage: 2,690,463
A nice chocolate brown large cent with some blue-green highlights. Perhaps one of a hoard
of this variety once found, this is a common R-1 variety with many mint state examples extant.
This coin is most easily attributed by the position of the date on the obverse, and a reverse
die scratch/gogue going from the middle to the top right serifs in the E in CENT.
