| Description: |
120.2 grains. 28.1 mm. Even medium brown with good overall visual appeal. No individually
significant marks, though many tiny ones are noted in the fields. A pair of twin parallel
hairlines run diagonally from the base of US to the wreath above the right side of the
date. A tiny mint clip above US of JUSTITIA was almost completely obliterated by a sharp
strike. The reverse eye is well detailed. This popular type deserves at least one
representative example in every cabinet of early American coins.
