Lustrous light chocolate and steel brown with faded mint red covering 10% of the obverse and brighter mint color showing on a third of the reverse. The surfaces are satiny and slightly reflective, and this cent has great eye appeal. Only trivial marks including a few microscopic ticks under star 7 and a tiny struck-through line off the left end of the crossbar of the 4, as struck. EDS, die state a (the die state of the proofs and earliest business strikes). The fine die finishing lines are clear on both sides and the rim cud break at the U in UNITED has not formed. Called MS63 and CC#2 of the business strikes in the Noyes census, his photo #31076. Our grade is MS64, tied for CC#1 of the business strikes in the Grellman census. The attribution and Naftzger-Heard provenance are noted on the PCGS label.405833.65/18900056Ex 1979 EAC Sale, 1/13/1979:274 (via Myles Z. Gerson)-R. E.
