Lot Title: 1821 (N-2, R.1) PCGS XF-45.
Description: Date collectors know just as well as early copper specialists do how very difficult it is to locate a nice 1821 large-cent of either Sheldon variety. Mintage of under 400,000 was significantly lower than preceding and subsequent years, assuring a limited supply to begin with, and these issues were prone to environmental damage from the get-go. Here is an N-2 example that displays surface quality much nicer than usual, albeit somewhat dark compared to examples from other dates. The dark-cocoa appearance is augmented by a hint of gloss on each side, and there is less debris than is usually encountered.
Low Estimate: $775.00
High Estimate: $950.00

221The Midwest Summer Sale 2012 on 07/27/2012$450.00
1821 (N-7) VF details/scratched/residue.
Some caveats affect the value negatively, but really, this is not a bad cent at all given that it is an 1821, and those tend to be ugly. Details go all the way to VF, but someone has errantly...
141The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/12/2010$380.00
1821 (N-2) VF and 1822 (N-2, R.3) XF.
Newcomb attribution of N-2 applies to both these large-cents, although they are different dates. 1821 displays details that just barely achieve the VF level, but each side displays evidence of...
511The Midwest Winter Sale 2009 on 02/13/2009$675.00
1821 and 1822.
A pair of somewhat more difficult large cents. The 1821 N-2 is a delightful example of a date that has become very difficult to find "nice" in recent years. In perusing EAC catalogs of the past few...
241The Collectors' Auction 2007 on 10/19/2007$305.00
Three better Coronet Head Cents.
1818 XF, 1821 VG+, and 1826 VF-30+. The 1818 has nearly uncirculated detail but may have been recolored to achieve a uniform medium brown color. The 1821 has a few light surface scratches, but it is...
269The Midwest Summer Sale 2006 on 07/21/2006$4,000.00
1821 MS-60+ BN.
This is a super tough coin in the higher circulated grades and nearly impossible in the uncirculated grades. There is no wear, and only a few light contact marks can be seen on the nice, even brown...
