mint red, the colors beautifully blended, with two vertical darkish
streaks through Liberty. There are a couple microscopic keg marks on each
side not distracting much from the beauty of this cent. A sharply struck
early die state. Don't miss out on this lovely coin which will always be
desirable for its surfaces, color and eye appeal."
