Lustrous light olive and steel with mint red showing on about 20% of the obverse and 5% of the reverse. The surfaces are satiny and this cent has great eye appeal. The only defects, and they are trivial, are a speck of carbon on the lower edge of the hair bun and a planchet chip on the rim over the A in STATES. E-MDS with a die crack down from the dentils through the left point of star 9 into the hair below, and there is a raised lump off the left point of star 9. There are no die cracks from the lowest curl to the date. Our grade is MS64. The attribution and Eric P. Newman Collection provenance are noted on the NGC label.
