1854 Pattern Large Cent (1c) J-160

Rich original chocolate-brown surfaces with just the right gloss give this J-160 impressive eye appeal. Some faint friction is present at the high points, consistent with the grade. Smooth, problem-free surfaces, even color front and back, and a well-deserved green CAC sticker in a PCGS holder make this example easy to love. Noah snagged this one raw out of an estate sale and when the coin arrived we fell in love with it (and we're glad CAC did too!)
