This is an exceptional example with fully lustrous surfaces. Grayish gold and iridescent toning provide considerable aesthetic appeal. Both obverse and reverse have strong central details with weakness through the obverse stars. The borders are strong on both sides, except for lower obverse.

Extremely heavy clash marks including the entire scroll beneath the bust. Much of the shield is visible near Liberty's ear. The reverse has much lighter clash marks.

Previously certified MS-62 by NGC.
