Lustrous medium olive delicately woodgrained with medium brown and tan on the obverse. Mint red remains on 5% of the obverse, 20% of the reverse, and the eye appeal of this cent is excellent. The surfaces are satiny and virtually free of marks or any other defects. The best identifying marks, and you will need a good glass to see them, are three microscopic ticks in a line off the left point of star 13 and a spot of darker toning inside the top of the E in STATES. MDS with fine radial die flowlines in the fields. The obverse is cracked (as always) but the branch crack to the dentils between stars 11 & 12 has not formed. Our grade is MS62+, close to MS63. A very nice example of the Large 8 & Stars type. The attribution and Doug Bird Collection provenance are noted on the PCGS Gold Shield label.
