Choice glossy medium brown blending to light olive brown in protected areas with subtle overtones of light bluish steel on both sides. Satiny mint luster covers the fields and this cent has great eye appeal in spite of a touch of friction on the highpoints. Microscopic specks of darker chocolate brown toning are scattered over the obverse, but it takes a glass to see them. Otherwise this cent is flawless. MDS. The fields are flowlined and the depression in the field between star 1 and the throat is just starting to show, but it is faint. Graded MS60 by Del Bland. Our grade is AU55. The attribution and COL Ellsworth Collection provenance are noted on the PCGS Gold Shield label.
