Lustrous mint red mellowing to light steel brown with two-thirds of the red remaining on the obverse, 10% on the reverse. Only a few microscopic flaws, including a tiny planchet flake in the field right of the main curl (as struck) and a very tiny tick on the rim at star 12. Sharp EDS, die state a, with short points down from the neck and fine die lines from the dentils under the date to below the adjacent stars. (Newcomb thought this variety was merely an early die state of N-9, but the obverse die is different.) All the fine die lines are crisp and the reverse fields are slightly reflective. A sharp, very attractive cent. Our grade is MS64, tied for CC#4 in the Grellman census. The attribution is noted on the PCGS label. Comes with a nice provenance. 406785.65/26560595 Ex Paramount International Coin Corp., 11/8/1973:1175-Del N. Bland-R. S. Brown, Jr., Superior 9/30/1986:1265-J. R.
