Even medium brown surfaces show strong frost and superb lustrous cartwheel. The fields are free of significant marks or discoloration, showing just some subtle and pleasing olive toning around the reverse design elements. A bit of friction on the edge of Libertys throat and a couple microscopic contact points on her portrait are found under magnification. A delicate obverse crack descends through the right serifs of E in LIBERTY and Libertys ear before stopping in her shoulder curl, marking this as Manley 2.0. The reverse shows a single very subtle clash, best seen atop the wreaths interior and right of F in HALF. An unusual and subtle bulge is visible to the lower right of F in OF; this interesting aspect is typically called the "egg" in the relevant literature. A similar topography near star 12 receives less notice, but whatever caused one also caused the other. A batch of rust at the bases of RT of LIBERTY is typical of this obverse die; the 45 degrees clockwise reverse rotation is one of many unusual rotations found on this variety.Displayed at the Early American Coppers convention Half Cent Happening in 1989 and 2001 in competition with other examples of this variety, this coin won first place both years.
