Lustrous bright mint red just starting to fade to light steel brown on the highpoints, about 85% of the original mint color remaining. There are some microscopic specks of darker toning scattered over both sides; the only ones visible to the unaided eye are a speck in the dentils under the 5 and another under the right side of the O in ONE. A thin nick on the rim right of star 13 and a very tiny chip out of the rim over the A in STATES can also help identify this cent. M-LDS, die state b. The earlier die lines are gone and there is a small lump before the eye. Our grade is MS65, tied for CC#3 honors in the Grellman census. An impressive cent. The Sturgeon Collection provenance is noted on the PCGS label.
