Very lustrous light bluish steel and olive brown with hints of faded mint color in protected areas on the reverse. Satiny mint frost covers this cent, even the highpoints, and it has excellent eye appeal. The only marks, and they are barely visible, are some tiny planchet flakes on the truncation over the 83, a couple tiny ticks right of the mouth, and a subtle puff of slightly darker toning over the N in ONE. LDS. The die line at stars 5-6 is gone as are most of the dentils on both sides. A small rim cud three dentils wide is located under the end of the wreath stem, but it is barely visible on this example. Our grade is MS62+. The attribution is noted on the PCGS label.
