Frosty light steel brown with golden tan faded down from mint color covering the protected areas. The highpoints are a darker shade of steel brown. The luster is a bit subdued by a layer of natural oxidation, and this half cent looks like it has not been touched in more than a century. Later die state, Manley 5.0, Fuhrman 7, with cracks and swelling on the obverse. The end of the nose is flat and ICA on the reverse is essentially gone, both features of the die state. The rest of the features are clear including the 1 Above 1. Our grade is MS60. Housed in a small PCGS slab, the coveted OGH "rattler" type. (The slab is a bit scuffed with a scratch on the reverse)
