Frosty light chocolate and steel brown with reddish brown toning in protected areas. The obverse is mostly smooth with just a couple areas of microscopic roughness, but microscopic roughness covers most of the reverse and there are tiny specks of verdigris on that side. Small planchet fissures on the rim at the E in STATES and O in OF are the only notable marks (both as struck). MDS, Breen state V, with a raised, bifurcated retained cud break connected to the 00 in the denominator. A sharp example of a neat die state, and the obverse has excellent eye appeal. Would grade AU50 if the surfaces were perfectly smooth.
