New Brunswick One Cents (8)
| Date | Variety | Grading Agency | Grade | Description | price |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1861 | CCCS-ICCS | MS66 RED-MS66 RED | VERY RARE. Tied with one as HIGHEST ICCS. 95% Red with excellent sutrfaces, frost strike and eye appeal ** | $5,900.00 | |
| 1861 | CCCS-ICCS | MS64 RD - MS64 RD | 85%/75% Red. Full strike. MS64 Trends est. for 100% Red $2000 +, 95% - 85% Red $1750, 85% - 75% - $1600. In the Canadian Coin Dealer Newsletter (2008), compiled by Mr. Michael Findlay (the current Canadian Coin News Editor) it was listed in MS64 Red at $2000. This piece is 85% Red with pleasing cartwheel frost, a full strike & only light contacts visible with a glass and commensurate with the twice assigned grade of MS64 RED. It is in a CCCS hard holder and cross-graded the same with an early ICCS (EC 292) ticket and on the CCCS holder. I spoke with the consignor and he has allowed a modest reduction for the estimate. Est.- MS64 RED - $1850. ** | $1,650.00 | |
| 1861 | ICG-NCC | AU58-AU58 | Tons of red remaining for a circulated Maritime cent. 25%/65%. Est. $125 ** | $100.00 | |
| 1864 | Re-punched 86 (8 over 8 & Small 6 over Medium 6) | CCCS - NCC | MS65 RB | We have seen only 2 examples of this variety (both shown here and easily seen with a 10% or 16% glass) and none in any Maritime study material that we have seen. Neither the '1' nor the '4' appear to have any corrective re-punching - only the 8 & 6. Newcan has viewed some 1864 date NB Cents that were well on their way to only half of the numeral 8, ie - almost without any bottom half of the digit. This 1864 weakness appears more dire and more often than a weak '6'; but a corrective repunch 8 and 6 were created; likely to ensure the future utility of the coin. It seems as though the '8' was the main problem and the replacement 6 may have been included as an extra protective measure only. This re-punched '6' is as visible as the corrected '8' but it looks nothing like the rare 'LONG 6"and should be labelled re height, as midway between the original Short 6 and the final Long 6. This intermediate correction attempt for the worn 8 & 6 appears to have been retired very quickly. In fact it may be fitting for this intermediate bridging date to have its own listing and photo in Charlton and/or Trends. The ' 6 ' in this date type is NOT a Short, NOR a Long 6. It is midway between the 2, and for ease of reference Newcan refers to it as Small Over Medium 6. There are 2 pieces in Newcan's listing - one is AU55 Brown and the other is MS65 - 35%/65% Red with very strong frost, no visible contacts and neat design clashing on both sides. Both examples listed here (MS65 35%/65% Red and AU53 Brown) have identical clashing on both sides. ** | ? |
| 1864 | Re-punched 86 (8 over 8 and Small 6 over Medium 6) | CCCS-NCC | AU53 | We are not sure why this Re-punch Variety has not been recognized in Trends or any Maritme text that we have seen. The Re-cut 8 and the Re-cut 6 are both easily visible with a 10 or 16 power glass. The 6 beneath the Small 6 is definitly NOT a Tall 6 nor a Short 6. This example and the one above (MS65 35%/65% Red) on our listing are both identical. Neither the 1 nor the 4 appear to have any doubling. ** | ? |
| 1864 | Short 6 | CCCS - NCC | MS64+ Trace RD/RB | Strong frost - both sides. 15%/50% Red with strong eye appeal for the grade. Neat clashing - both sides. Est. $950 ** | $725.00 |
| 1864 | Short 6 | NCC | MS63 Frosty Brown | Both sides - frosty brown. Reverse is 64. Obverse grade 63. Problem free. Est. $350. ** | $275.00 |
| 1864 | Tall 6 | CCCS - NCC | AU58 | Has lots of red left. Estimate $270. ** | $210.00 |

| 1864 | Large 6 | NCC | EF45 | Original and even, medium to dark slate-blue toning on both sides.

| 1862 | Double Punch 2 Raised Tilted 6 | CCCS - NCC | AU50 | Brilliant & very lustrous on both sides; but one modest dig at back of jaw and one very small dig at the back edge of neck. Obverse and Reverse both have many moderate scratches that don't show to the eye when the coin is viewed at one foot away; but in close inspection these scratches are obvious and distracting. Too bad - it would be the finest Newcan had ever listed without these problems. * | $275.00 |
