W-O-W!

There's three things really going for this coin:
-A proof early copper (unheard of!)
-Beautifully toned!!
-Perfectly preserved

If I won the lottery, this would be one of the first coins I'd buy.

Can't seem to see the one you're posting about? If you click on the link it takes you to their list of large cents not the coin in particular..?
Perhaps it was removed or sold?

Uh... Oops. I can't find the coin I was talking about either. It's been sold!
Rest in Peace

Dumb question, as I know nothing about copper (except that its a beauty). The horizontal-ish on the obverse by her eye: is that on the holder, is it a planchet/die break or something else?

Thanks

Looks very much to me like it's a scratch on the holder.

That's what I thought. I know this has been answered before, but the TPG for a small amount will reholder it (obviously, without the bean).
