Lustrous bright mint red mellowing to light steel brown with two-thirds of the planchet showing mint color. An impressive piece, one of the reddest seen. The only flaws are some microscopic specks of darker steel brown toning on both sides and a few microscopic planchet flakes under the second S in STATES. M-LDS, Manley state 4.0, Fuhrman state 4. The curl left of the date is open. Our grade is MS64. This piece is on the special Breen color plate in his 1983 half cent encyclopedia (page 505 in the back of the book). Housed in an older generation PCGS slab.
