An overall boldly defined example with full denticulation encircling both sides. Somewhat glossy in texture with steely-lilac undertones, both sides exhibit dominant autumn-brown patina that enhances the visual appeal.

More affordable Choice EF preservation for this key date issue in the Matron Head cent series.
