Lustrous steel brown and olive with frosty light tan faded down from mint color in protected areas. A beautiful cent that may be coated with a very thin layer of "Care" or a similar protectant. Looks choice but there is a very faint vertical scratch left of the hair ribbon. Otherwise the only mark is a small swipe of darker toning (not carbon) under the Y in LIBERTY. M-LDS, Breen state IV, with narrow rim cuds over TY and right of the Y (difficult to see in the slab). The Stemless Wreath and Doubled Fraction Bar features are obvious. Graded MS62 and CC#3 in the Noyes census, his photo #28558. Our grade is MS62. Comes with a great provenance. Housed in an older generation PCGS slab. (The slab is scratched on the reverse)
