Lustrous light olive brown and steel with 15-20% of the mint red showing. This cent has excellent eye appeal with satiny surfaces and trivial marks. The best identifying marks are a very faint splash of reddish brown toning in the field right of star 3 and a thin diagonal nick between star 4 and the nose. E-MDS, die state a late or b early. The fields are starting to show microscopic radial flowlines that create attractive cartwheel luster and the die lines between ON in ONE and EN in CENT are clear. The line connecting the S to the adjacent O also is clear and rather sharp (usually seen dull and only in die state b). Our grade is MS62+, very close to MS63, and CC#6 in the Grellman census. The attribution and Naftzger Collection provenance are noted on the PCGS label.406512.65/18900262Ex Denis W. Loring 11/1980-R. E.
