At least 10 points sharper but there is a shallow planchet void in the center of the obverse and a smaller one on the neck (as struck). Otherwise the only defect is an area of microscopic roughness at the second S in STATES. Glossy chocolate brown with steel brown toning on the highpoints. LDS, Breen state VII, with a cud break connecting AM to the rim. Graded VF35 net VF25 and tied for CC#7 in the Noyes census, his photo #28660. Bland says EF40 and CC#4 in his census. This is the Newcomb plate coin (obverse and reverse) for the variety in his 1925 reference on the cents of 1801-1803, and the reverse is plated in Dr. Sheldon's Penny Whimsy. Comes with a great provenance.
