Glossy medium chocolate brown delicately mottled with some lighter brown toning. Peeps of very faded red show in protected areas on the obverse, perhaps from an old cleaning on that side. The reverse is lustrous and the toning looks original. The only mark is a nick-like diagonal planchet chip in the field between star 1 and the neck. Flowline luster covers the fields on both sides. MDS. The diagonal die lines below ONE are weak but a few remain visible, and the two tiny dots right of the base of the T in CENT are gone. Our grade is AU55. Removed from an NGC slab graded MS63BN (NGC label #1971554-004 included). The attribution is noted on the PCGS label.
