An eye-catching gem large cent bested by only two finer examples, both MS66RB with no full red survivors known. Light rosy-brown color gives way to generous amounts of original red-orange remaining in the protected areas. Exceptionally smooth fields are original and boldly defined throughout.
Smooth, lustrous gem with pretty dark chocolate brown surfaces with subtle purple undertones on the obverse and hints of golden-tan on the reverse. The striking detail is crisp and the eye appeal is wonderful! Tied for finest known brown example between both services.
Lovely original brown with hints of original mint red still clinging tightly to the devices. No distracting spots or heavy hits. Excellent luster and strong eye appeal!
Smooth, glossy surfaces are boldly defined and beautifully original. Great eye appeal!
No spots, marks, or distractions to speak of. Fully lustrous with touches of mint red tightly around the devices, with hints of subtle blues when rotated in the light. Newcomb 3 variety - only one finer for the variety in BN. A no-brainer for CAC.
