Lustrous medium brown and light olive with subtle overtones of light bluish steel. Generous traces of mellowed mint red remain visible on both sides, especially on the reverse. The surfaces are satiny and this cent has great eye appeal. The only marks are a speck of carbon near the hair below star 7, a tiny scuff at the chin, and a small planchet lamination in the dentils right of star 11 (as struck). M-LDS, die state c. The points up from the left top of the N in ONE are clear and there is a narrow rim cud under the 18 with a thin extension reaching under the 4. A nice example of this popular "Redbook" variety. Our grade is MS62+.
