Losbeschreibung

Breen Die State I. There is reddish-brown and steel-olive color visible on both sides. This is a clear and appealing example for the assigned grade with no signs of mishandling. Softly struck around the peripheries, especially on the reverse. Some light superficial roughness can be seen. This elusive variety was discovered by G. Wilharm before 1921, who sold his specimen to Clapp. The present example was unknown to the collecting fraternity until its first auction appearance in 1994. EAC grade of VG10 and tied with two other coins for CC#1 in the 2000 Bland census.
