Date: 1796Rather glossy dark chocolate brown with steel brown toning on the highpoints. The surfaces are mostly smooth and this cent has nice eye appeal for the grade. The notable marks are a small dig in the field just left of the hair ribbon, a small planchet chip right of the L, a thin nick on the jaw near the throat, and a long diagonal nick over the N in ONE. The date is clear and the legends are strong. Extremely rare terminal die state, Breen state II, with a strong die crack through TES. The area above this crack is clearly sunken into a retained cud. Tied for CC#3 in the Noyes census as F12 net VG8, his photo #32703. Called VG8 and tied for CC#4 in the Bland census. Most likely the finest known of the die state (we know of 3 others, all in lower grade). This die state was not known to Sheldon and is not plated in the Breen or Noyes books. A very important cent.Ex Russell Post 10/21/1992-Thomas D. Reynolds, 2002 ANA Sale, McCawley & Grellman Auctions/Superior, lot 221-W. M. "Jack" Wadlington 4/16/2004 (via Chris McCawley)-Daniel W.
