| Description: |
R-5. Extremely Fine. A superior specimen, one of the finest seen. The Miller Sale Coin.
143.9 gns. Very good deep olive green color on both sides. Obverse surface microgranular
everywhere, a little rough at the left and upper right; the reverse rough on the rim at
left, a little less so at lower right, microgranular elsewhere. The obverse off center to
the right, tops of 'ONNEC' run off the flan; the reverse nearly perfectly centered, bases
of the date numerals reach the edge but are almost fully present. Pronounced planchet
cutter clip on the obverse at about 6:00 mirrored on the reverse at about 12:15. The
reverse rim ragged at left and right, a result of the planchet cutter which has beveled
the obverse rim. A few light marks, but no serious flaws or other defects raising concern. |
