The surface texture is decidedly satiny, although there is faint semi-reflectivity in the fields. The sharp strike and carefully surfaces readily uphold the validity of the assigned numeric grade. Thin strikethroughs in the lower right obverse field and on the reverse at the tops of the letters ST in STATES are as made. Noyes Die State I/E. Provenance: From the Boston Old City Hall Collection. NGC Census: 6; with a single MS-66 BN finer in this category. PCGS# 81627. Click here for certification details from NGC.
