Description
A coin that is one of the more spectacular condition rarities in the series. This was sold as BU in 1973 but it doesn't quite meet that mark. It has a proof like surfaces look on the obverse with high AU-MS details in the hair and fields. Close-up examination with a loupe reveals light hairlines in the fields and going east-west on the face. Would probably have graded 58 or higher without the hairlines as the reverse does not have them and would be somewhere between 58-62. Would look fabulous in a high-grade Dansco album as the surfaces would pop with the right lighting
