Frosty light brown with areas of darker brown on both sides. Satiny mint luster covers the fields and this cent has excellent eye appeal. The only marks are a small pin prick right of star 1 and a subtle puff of reddish brown toning on the leaves under CA. E-MDS. The obverse is cracked but the radial crack from the outer point of star 13 to the dentils has not formed. There is a clear double profile from the brow lock down to the bottom of the neck with additional doubling on stars 10-13. A very nice cent that comes with an important provenance. Our grade is AU50+, close to AU55. The attribution and Brown-Boka provenance are noted on the PCGS label.
