Partly frosty chocolate brown and steel with peeps of flowline luster in protected areas. No corrosion or verdigris, only a few trivial marks. The notable marks are a short diagonal scratch at the left edge of the curl under the hair ribbon, a faint spot of lighter reddish brown toning in the hair at the back of the head, a tiny scratch at the left foot of the N in ONE, and a shallow planchet flake below the berry under the M in AMERICA. Only the spot of lighter toning in the hair is visible without the aid of a glass. Rare TDS, Breen state VII, with a strong cud break connecting the bust to the rim. In addition there is a narrow but clear double profile on the chin and tip of the nose (from die shift or bounce). The obverse of this cent is plated in Dr. Sheldon's Early American Cents and Penny Whimsy to illustrate the late die state. Graded VF30 net VF25 and tied for CC#7 overall in the Noyes census (but second finest of those known with the cud break), his photo #21041. Called VF30 by Del Bland and tied for CC#8 in the Breen/Bland census. Our grade is VF30. Comes with an impressive provenance. The attribution and Naftzger-Reynolds provenance are noted on the PCGS label. 36029.40/32783224 Ex Thomas L. Elder 5/1931:952-Henry C. Hines-Dr. William H. Sheldon-Dorothy I. Paschal 6/1977-R. E.
