Lustrous uniform steel brown with satiny mint frost covering the
fields and peeps of very faded mint color in a few places on both
sides. The only defects are a microscopic planchet chip on the
bottom edge of the bust above the first 8 and an extremely light and
barely visible rim nick above star 10. MDS. The fields are satiny
from fine die flowlines. The doubling on the reverse (from a double-hubbed
die) is clear, especially on the berries under TE in UNITED and ST
in STATES. Excellent eye appeal. Called MS60 and tied for CC#3 in
the Noyes census, his photo #27503. Removed from an NGC slab
graded MS65BN (NGC label included, and it shows the attribution
and Reiver provenance). Our grade is MS60. Pop 1; 1 in MS66 BN.
Only 2 graded at PCGS for the variety. |
