Glossy chocolate brown with a hint of reddish steel. Smooth with very sharp details and only microscopic marks. A tiny chip on the bust and a tick on the rim over the E in UNITED are the best identifying marks, and they are trivial. Probably recolored long ago but the toning is beautiful and the eye appeal of this cent is excellent. E-MDS with a single rim cud break at star 5 to star 6 but without the additional crack from the end of the wreath stem to the dentils. Our grade is AU50. Comes with a nice provenance. The attribution and COL Ellsworth Collection provenance are noted on the PCGS Gold Shield label.
