Breen Die State III. This is an impressive Draped Bust cent with razor sharp to full definition from the borders to the centers. The strike (or strikes, we should write) are well centered within uniformly denticulated borders. The double striking is most pronounced at the denticles along the left obverse border, in the date area, and at most design elements on the reverse. Smooth and hard in hand with even dark copper patina, a loupe reveals light granularity and microporosity, both of which features are easily overlooked given this piece's overall positive appearance. Offering a wealth of detail for both the type and variety, the Mint error is also highly significant and will further tempt advanced early copper enthusiasts.
