Frosty light to medium chocolate brown with subtle wisps of slightly darker olive brown toning on the lower part of the obverse. Lighter steel brown toning shows in protected areas on both sides. Satiny mint luster covers the fields and protected areas, especially on the reverse. A choice example if not for a faint linear planchet lamination from the right side of the Y in LIBERTY down to the pole where it connects to the neck. A small, shallow planchet flake is located just to the right of this lamination where it leaves the Y (as struck). The only other mark is a tiny rim nick over the left side of the E in LIBERTY. LDS, Breen state II, with the usual cud break at the dentils left of the hair. This example has dentils on the raised cud break indicating it is a retained cud. I suspect this was the case on many if not all of the known examples with the cud, but this is the only example sharp enough to show the raised dentils. Called MS60 and finest known by a full 20 points in the Bland census. Noyes says AU55 and CC#1 by 20 points, his photo #20869, and this is the Noyes plate coin for the variety in his 1991 reference on early large cents. Our grade is MS60. The attribution and Dan Holmes Collection provenance are noted on the PCGS label.
