Date: 1794Sharpness near F12 but myriad light scratches cover much of both sides and there is a collection of contact marks on the upper part of the neck. Minor roughness covers all but the highpoints of the devices, which are smooth, and there are traces of fine verdigris in a few places. Very shallow dents near the rim behind the portrait have caused a minor bulge at UNITED. The surfaces display a decent amount of gloss in spite of the minor roughness. Recolored an attractive medium chocolate brown with a hint of reddish chocolate toning in the protected areas. Very late die state, the latest seen. Although wear has removed most of the bisecting obverse crack, the crack is strong and wide at the end of the pole. This die state is clearly later than Breen's state IV. The date is strong and the legends are clear except for much of ONE CENT thanks to the swelling in that area associated with the late die state.Ex Tangible Asset Galleries & Chris McCawley, Superior 2/18/2001:2117-Charles F.
