Sharpness near VF30 but covered with uniform fine granularity on all but the highpoints which are smooth. No verdigris and the only mark is a barely visible rim bruise at the top of the reverse. Slightly glossy medium olive brown and steel with slightly lighter steel brown toning on the highpoints. Sharply struck with nice eye appeal in spite of the imperfect surfaces. M-LDS, Breen state VI early, with a strong bisecting die crack down through the portrait and a faint crack from the rim through the cap to the back of the head. The date and legends are complete and strong. Graded VF35 net F15 by Del Bland and tied for CC#8 in his census. Noyes says VF35 net F12 and tied for CC#9, his photo #24389. Struck with the reverse rotated 10-15 degrees clockwise. A very nice example of this tough die variety, and it comes with a great provenance that has been traced back more than a century.
