Ex Robinson S. Brown, Jr. A glistening AU with full luster and subtle champagne toning. The coin is everyone’s AU 58. I expect no disagreement. Robbie Brown acquired it in an NGC AU 58 holder in 1989. Tim was the successful bidder in my “Brown Part 3 Sale,” (MB 15, lot 66) at the 1995 ANA Convention in Anaheim. I wrote, “Blazing luster with faint rub on the cheek – a real ‘58.’ The strike is a wonder: 13 star points, high rims, full dentils, curls, feathers and talons -- features rarely seen on 1832s.” Tim’s notes on the coin are brief and to the point: “A blazer; ‘A’ eye appeal.”
