Choice lustrous medium steel brown and light olive with delicate overtones of light bluish steel. Original bright mint red shows on 20-25% of the planchet and this cent has outstanding eye appeal. Nearly flawless with just a few trivial contact marks. A pair of tiny, very light parallel diagonal ticks on the cheek right of the lower lip may help identify this cent, but they are difficult to see even with a glass. MDS with crumbling on the brow but no crumbling on the upper lip. Graded MS63 and tied for CC#3 in the Noyes census, his photo #33402. Bland says MS65 and CC#1. Our grade is MS64. A great cent any way you look at it. Removed from an NGC slab graded MS65RB (NGC label #315583-007). The attribution and Reale-Ahumada provenance are noted on the PCGS label.
