Lot Description

Grellman Die State b. Satiny and hard surfaces exhibit light, mottled, steel-brown iridescence to otherwise dominant rose-orange mint color. There are no marks of consequence, just wispy carbon flecks that are a bit more prevalent on the reverse. The digits 18 in the date and stars 13 are blunt, seemingly from having been struck through grease or some other kind of foreign matter that adhered to the die. Otherwise sharply defined, this is a lovely Mint State example that will appeal to both high quality type and variety collectors.
