Glossy dark reddish chocolate brown with slightly lighter toning on the devices. The surfaces are smooth and void of marks except for a small, shallow pit near the dentils before the face. Struck on a think planchet cut-down from a large cent planchet. Unfortunately PCGS did not include the exact weight on the label, but the abnormal thickness is obvious. The date is a bit weakly struck, as usual for these think planchet strikes, especially on the 5, but it is still easily readable. The legends are clear. Our grade is VG10. The attribution is noted on the PCGS label. (The slab is scuffed on the reverse.)
