A sharp, very attractive cent but there are areas of extremely fine roughness on both sides, strongest at the hair buns and CE in CENT. There is a small patch of very light verdigris or crud right of the base of the E in ONE and specks of dark verdigris nestled into the wreath under ED-ST. Rather lustrous dark steel and olive brown with frosty slightly faded red covering the protected areas, especially on the obverse. MDS, Grellman die state a. Fine die flowlines cover the fields and the overdate is starting to weaken, but the undertype 19 remains visible including the loop of the 9 inside the 0. This cent has excellent eye appeal and appears to be choice mint state to the unaided eye (hence the PCGS grade and CAC Approval). Called MS62 and tied for CC#6 in the Bland census. Noyes says AU55 net AU50, his photo #22647. Our grade is AU58. The attribution and Dan Holmes provenance are noted on the PCGS label. 36685.63/15090079 Ex California Numismatic Funding 2/1984-William K. Raymond-Del Bland-R. E.
