Mottled mix of tan and darker steel brown. The corrosion is microscopic, essentially not worthy of mention, but there are some fine scratches on the obverse. The scratches are located in the left obverse field and on the cheek, and none of them is visible to the unaided eye. When makes this cent special is that the planchet is split, this being the obverse while the reverse side is gone. The devices from the reverse are just a faint shadow. The cent weighs 84.9 grains, about half of what a normal "complete" cent should weigh. Our grade is net VF20. The Split Planchet error and attribution are noted on the NGC label.
