Description du lot

Mintage: 31,360. 33 graded AU-55, 75 higher at NGC. Generally a more available Charlotte emission, strike quality also seems better than average for a coin struck at the southern mint. Brassy golden highlights show where light rub takes the coin out of mint-state territory, contrasting nicely with the overall lemon-gold patina. Strictly honest wear shows overall save a tiny rim nick at 9:00 on the reverse.
