Attractive lustrous medium brown and chocolate with 25% of the mint red remaining, a 20/30% split. The only notable marks are a microscopic speck of darker toning at the outer point of star 10, a few very light ticks on the cheek, and a tiny rim nick off the end of the wreath stem. None of these marks is significant and the eye appeal of this cent is really nice. EDS+, die state d late, with minor crumbling on the reverse. Our grade is MS62, tied for CC#4 for the variety but finest of the early state in the Grellman census. The attribution and Iskra Collection provenance are noted on the PCGS label.405641.64/81014424Ex Denis W. Loring 1/17/1988-Wesley A. Rasmussen, McCawley & Grellman Auctions/Superior 2/8/1998:254-R.
