Lustrous tan and light brown with splashes of reddish steel on the reverse. Microscopic traces of fine carbon or verdigris can be found in some of those reddish areas but the remainder of the planchet is quite nice. The only other mark of significance is a spot of dark olive brown toning (not carbon) at the lower left point of star 5. Nicely struck MDS with the usual die crack on the obverse and flowlined fields, but most of the dentils are visible on both sides. Our grade is net AU58. Comes with a nice provenance. The attribution and COL Ellsworth Collection provenance are noted on the PCGS Gold Shield label.
