Lot Description

Henry Terranova Collection. VAM-4, Top-100 and a "WOW!" variety for an obvious reason -- the monster die break on the reverse cannot be missed. Likely crossed from an old ANACS or NGC slab, an arc of violet-purple over Liberty's head and a swath of orange-purple beneath the reverse wreath are classic indications of toning incurred by coins in those old slabs. Four slightly angry reedmarks grope at the neck but otherwise, merely scattered bagmarks help to determine the grade.
