Lustrous medium brown and light olive blending to light chocolate. Traces of faded mint red remain visible on both sides and this cent has great eye appeal. Just a few trivial marks from choice including a couple microscopic spots of darker toning on the obverse and a faint hairline scratch on the neck. MDS. There are obvious radial die flowlines in the fields but no crumbling in the dentils under star 1. Graded MS60+ and tied for CC#2 in the Bland census. Our grade is MS62. The attribution and Ahumada provenance are noted on the PCGS label.
