Frosty light to medium brown with a puff of reddish brown toning under star 5 and slightly darker steel brown on the highpoints. Satiny mint luster shows in the fields and protected areas and this cent has excellent eye appeal. No marks or other defects, just a hint of rub on the highpoints. Softly struck in some areas, particularly on the upper part of the hair bun and on the leaves under ENT. Very early die state with several fine parallel dashes right of the date. The fields are smooth and very slightly reflective, and the crack through the date and stars is very fine. A very nice cent. Our grade is AU50. Comes with a nice provenance. The attribution and Twin Leaf Collection provenance are noted on the PCGS label.
