Very attractive glossy medium brown and light chocolate with frosty mint luster in protected areas, especially on the reverse. Essentially void of marks, just lightly worn on the devices. Some microscopic specks of darker toning between the date and star 1 are the best identifying marks, but they are faint and are not distracting. E-MDS. The dentils are sharp around both sides, the fields are smooth, and the center dot on the reverse is clear. Struck very slightly off center to the top. Called EF45 net EF40 and tied for CC#8 in the Noyes census, his photo #28116. Listed as AU50 and tied for CC#4 in the Bland census. Our grade is EF40+. A beautiful cent that comes with a nice provenance. The attribution is noted on the PCGS label.
