A mint state cent that still shows some of the original mint color but there are too many microscopic contact marks for the higher grade. A tiny diagonal scratch left of the curl on the brow and some small spots of darker toning around the C in CENT many help identify this cent. Lustrous light olive and steel brown with generous traces of mint red showing, especially on the reverse. M-LDS with a strong die crack at AM. Comes with a nice provenance.
