Glossy light olive and reddish brown. Smooth surfaces with only minor marks including a dull diagonal nick off the upper right point of star 1. Extremely rare terminal die state with a strong cud break from star 8 to star 9 nearly touching the outer point of star 9. In addition there is a fine double profile on the lips, chin, stars, and IBERTY (from die shift or "machine doubling"). Tied for finest known honors of the die state with one other example that has more defects. Noyes graded VF20 net F15, his photo #38501. This is the plate coin for the variety in the John Wright reference on the cents of 1816-1839. An important piece for the die state specialist.
