Lot Description

Bert Davies Collection. The grade is oh-so-close to VG but misses by the thinnest margin as LIBERTY barely merges with the rim, and a three to four tiny peripheral design elements on the reverse also greet the rim. This is all to say that the overdate feature stands out bold and strong beneath a loupe, while further examination finds an utterly original pewter-grey surface with just the perfect touch of underlying graphite accents. Utterly outstanding!
