Sharply struck and very attractive, although the luster is hidden a bit under a thin layer of natural oxidation that could be removed. A choice cent except for a tiny planchet flake right of the Y in LIBERTY and a dull nick on the leaf below the A in STATES. Neither of these defects is distracting, in fact they are not easy to find.
