Glossy medium brown and light chocolate. Smooth and lightly worn suggesting it was used as a real cent in commerce. A vertical nick on the upper part of the inner section of the hair bun is the only notable mark. LDS, Grellman state g, with the final crack down through the TE in STATES into the wreath in addition to the earlier cracks and die rust. A clearly defined rim cud shows at ED in UNITED. These restrikes were struck outside the mint using discarded mint dies that had been sold for scrap. The obverse die used was the normal Newcomb-2 variety of 1823, but apparently a reverse die of the type used in 1823 was not available and they substituted a reverse die used for the 1813 Sheldon-293 variety. The result was an “1823” cent that looked nothing like the genuine mint product. Our grade is EF45.
