1C 1839 BOOBY HEAD PCGS MS66BN N-6 NAFTZGER
$6,750.00
The Naftzger coins are unequaled in terms of both quality and rarity!
We love the description of this coin on the accompanying envelope: “Un excelled gem specimen of a variety almost non existent in high grade. Translucent wood grained effect worthy of description in a Shakespearean sonnet. Above description written by and on the insistence of the Great Shal. Obtained from DBN 11/73 in this historic 3 cornered trade involving The great Shal’s St. OswaldHays 15”.
Our description: this is one heck of a coin! We do not see this as “woody” at all. The colors are more of an even purplish brown. There are NO visible problems, although there is a teenie planchet chip on the dentals (lower left obv). Miss Liberty and the details are remarkably struck. This is definitely a typical Nazftzger heart-pounding GEM!
. Very rare. PCGS 7, NGC 7. Keep in mind, these middle date Large Cents have been off the market for 20-30 years! You won’t have many chances to buy any once this round is sold!
