<Our item number 136143><B>1795 S-75 R3 Lettered Edge. PCGS graded MS-65 Red & Brown.</B> Highly lustrous light steel brown with faded mint color peeking through in the protected areas on both sides. Hints of attractive bluish steel overtone can be found as the cent is rotated in the light. Gorgeous satiny mint luster covers both sides, including on the highest points of the design. A gem cent in every respect. Finding an identifying mark is a real challenge. An extremely faint hairline from the temple down to the shoulder and a tiny struck-through line on the dentil over the left side of the U in UNITED are the only ones this cataloger can find &#40;and I use a strong 16x glass&#41;. MDS, Breen die state IV, before die buckling shows in the obverse fields. This is the Noyes plate coin for the variety, his photo #20914. Bland calls this cent MS65 and finest known while Noyes says MS63 Choice and tied for finest known honors. Our grade is Mint State-65. <B>PCGS population 1 with none finer.</B> <BR>Estimated V alue &#36;45,000 - 55,000. <I><BR>Ex Virgil M. Brand-B. G.
