Description
NGC authenticated and graded MS 64 BN. Frosty chocolate brown and light olive. The obverse is a bit dull thanks to a shallow layer of oxidation while the reverse is lustrous with very attractive overtones of light bluish steel. Looks like the obverse just needs a proper brushing. There is a spot at the dentil tips below star 2, another at the chin, and a tiny planchet flake between stars 6 & 7. E-MDS, die state b early, with very sharp diagonal die lines in the field at stars 10 & 11. Upright 55. Tied for CC#5 in the Grellman census. Comes with a nice provenance.
