- Lot Description
- Meant for the astute eagle collector this is a handsome XF example of this very underrated issue from a mintage of just 12,447 pieces. Lustrous, orange-golden highlights with nice luster. A first year of type issue and often overlooked as a true first year coin. Generous amounts of original, satiny luster are evident in the protected areas and a beautiful patina of warm golden-orange coats the bright yellow-gold fields.
