Light heather surfaces with pale blue and iridescent toning. A pleasing example of this variety. Typical obverse and reverse weakness is noted. Very few higher grade examples of this die state have currently been identified. This example appears to be within the top 10 for the die marriage.

Perfect obverse. The reverse has a very light die crack through the tops of UNITED and another extremely faint crack joining the tops of AT.

Purchased February 1979 at a Cleveland, Ohio coin show.
