An aesthetically pleasing example with considerable frosty lustre and attractive heather toning. A sharply struck example with full obverse and reverse borders.

Both obverse and reverse have very heavy clash marks as usual. The obverse has a vertical die crack from border through left side of second 1 to drapery, eventually reaching Liberty's ear. The reverse has a very weak die crack through the olive leaves to left wing tip.
