Iridescent 1858 Large Letters Cent, MS65

1858 1C Large Letters MS65 NGC. High Leaves Reverse, Closed E in ONE. Whispers of pale apricot iridescence overlay the lower obverse and right reverse of this otherwise honey-tan Gem. A conditionally rare offering, both sides are sharply defined throughout with no mentionable surface blemishes. Accuracy compels us to mention a few small planchet voids (as struck) that are scattered in the reverse field around the denomination ONE CENT. Census: 21 in 65, 5 finer (2/09).
