Lot Description

31 graded MS-65, 10 higher at NGC. Exquisitely lustrous and charmingly adorned in steel-blue, coral-orange and magenta accents, the coin displays no shortage of eye-appeal, which is a huge benefit for this oft-dull date within the series. Lesser struck examples are common, but the collector gets a happy opportunity here to pick up a meticulously struck example. The presence of two brief, relatively nonintrusive linear marks on the obverse determine the grade.
