Slightly glossy reddish chocolate blending to olive brown in protected areas. The surfaces are decent but not perfectly smooth, especially at STA where there are tiny specks of greenish verdigris. The only marks are a couple tiny hairline scratches from the nose to the cheek and two more on the bust, all old and blended into the toning. Sharply struck MDS, Breen state III, with a strong cud break left of the L in LIBERTY. This cent has nice eye appeal in spite of the minor defects. Our grade is VF25+ sharpness net VF20+. The attribution is noted on the NGC label.Certificate: 3606492-002Pedigree: Ex McCawley & Grellman Auctions/Goldbergs 9/22/2013:179 (lot ticket included)
