Frosty light chocolate brown with lighter steel brown covering the protected areas. Nicely struck and very attractive with just a hint of friction on the highest points of the devices. Just a few small marks including a splash of darker toning in the field at the nose and a couple tiny specks of raised greenish verdigris on the wreath ribbon. EDS with the usual rim cud breaks on the obverse and fine radial die flowlines in the fields on both sides (both dies were used in previous marriages). The repunching on the second 1 and the line through the right top of the first S in STATES are clear. Graded AU55 in by Noyes and tied for CC#3, his photo #27849. Our grade is AU55 as well. The attribution and COL Ellsworth Collection provenance are noted on the PCGS Gold Shield label.
