Lot Description

Manley Die State 1.0, Fuhrman Die State 1. Deep steely-copper patina with hints of lighter golden-tan around some of the design elements, the latter remnants of faded mint color. Overall detail is bold but, as typically seen for the variety, there is softness at the central reverse, here involving the letter E in CENT. Hard and frosty in texture with a few faint hairlines, yet no singularly mentionable marks.
