| Description: |
R-5. About Uncirculated. A superior specimen. 146.6 gns. Light golden brown in color on
both sides, the shade nearly uniform. Surfaces just microgranular, fields seem fairly
smooth and hard to the naked eye. Light flaw on the back of the effigy's head, another at
the upper left rim of the shield, and a more shallow flaw on Liberty's shins. Otherwise a
remarkably clean and handsome looking example. The obverse a little off center to the
upper right, the reverse off to the lower right, bases of the date numerals run off the
flan. Full obverse transverse break, cud beginning to form along that line from the
effigy's cheek to the field beyond its nose. |
