Close to mint state but there are a couple small rim nicks on the obverse, none significant but too many to ignore at this level of sharpness. Very attractive frosty medium brown and light chocolate with golden tan in protected areas. E-MDS with flowlined fields on both sides and dentils on the rim from star 11 to below star 12. A neat die state. Comes with a remarkable provenance for a relatively modest cent. Ex David Proskey-Henry C. Hines-Dr. William H. Sheldon-Numismatic Gallery-Willard C. Blaisdell 9/1976-Del Bland-Robert E. Vail, Superior 9/7/1997:580 (includes the Hines collection envelope and Superior lot ticket)
