NGC authenticated and graded MS 66 BN. Choice lustrous steel brown and light chocolate with subtle overtones of light bluish steel. Mint red remains visible on 10% of the obverse, 15% of the reverse. Satiny mint frost covers the surfaces and this cent offers outstanding eye appeal. Essentially flawless in every respect. The only defects are a few microscopic ticks of no consequence. A tiny nick in the center of the eyebrow and another on the end of the chin plus a pair of microscopic specks of carbon under the U in UNITED can help identify this cent. Nicely struck E-MDS. The fine diagonal die lines from the neck are sharp and the horizontal ones behind the N & E in ONE are strong. Ti ed for CC#5 honors in the Grellman census. Pop 25; 3 finer, 1 in 66 Star, 2 in 67 .
