Choice glossy medium steel brown and light chocolate with mint frost in the fields and protected areas. Virtually flawless with smooth surfaces and just a trace of wear on the highest points of the devices. This cent has superb eye appeal. The only marks, and they do not catch your eye, are two tiny horizontal nicks left of the upper lip and some microscopic planchet chips at the date, bust tip, and the opposing area around OF (as struck, of course). LDS, Breen state III. The radial die crack down through the E in LIBERTY is strong and a faint dull wave reaches from the dentils before the brow to just above the tip of the nose. Called AU50 Choice and CC#2 behind the Oswald coin in the Noyes census, his photo #21003. Bland says AU50 Choice and CC#2 behind only the Oswald coin. Our grade is AU50+. The next finest in both lists grades EF40 by EAC grading standards. The obverse of this cent is on the Elder-Gilbert plate (Thomas L. Elder auction of the 1794 cents of Ebenezer Gilbert, 10/12/1910, as 6-7-8). A very attractive cent that comes with a great provenance. The attribution and Husak Collection provenance are noted on the PCGS label.
