Sold in the Reiver sale at Heritage in January 2006, it was described as:

1843 1C Petite Head, Small Letters. N-10, R.3. MS62 Brown NGC. XF45 EAC. Grellman state b.
This assertively struck medium brown example is slightly deeper in color on the portrait.
Well struck on the stars and major devices. Short pinscratches are seen on the cheekbone
and above the E in ONE, and a few unimportant marks accompany the obverse field. Luster
beckons throughout when the piece is rotated beneath a light. Ex: George Ramont (8/9/1977). Envelope Included.

This coin was purchased from Col. Steve Ellsworth (aka Butternut).
