Frosty mint red fading to bluish steel brown and olive with at least 10% of the obverse and 60% of the reverse showing mint red. Lustrous and free of notable contact marks, but there are a couple splashes of darker toning on the reverse, especially at CE in CENT. The obverse is flawless. MDS, Manley state 3.0, Fuhrman 3. The earlier die clashmarks inside the wreath are faint and new parallel die lines have been added at UNITE. This is the plate coin for the variety in the second edition of the Roger Cohen half cent reference (page 83) and it is the plate coin for the variety and for state II in the Breen encyclopedia (see page 332). A very nice example of the 12-Star Obverse variety. Our grade is MS63+. Housed in an older generation PCGS slab.
