Dusted with pale sandy-silver iridescence, both sides are highly lustrous with a lively satin to softly frosted finish. Overall sharply struck with superior technical quality and eye appeal for the issue as well as the assigned grade. From a limited mintage for the type of 400,000 coins, most Mint State survivors of which are heavily abraded and confined to lower grades through MS-62. PCGS Population: 51; 54 finer in this category (MS-66+ finest). PCGS# 7238. NGC ID: 255Z. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
