    Description

    PCGS authenticated and graded PR 66 BN.
    Bluish steel and chocolate with iridescent green, red, and violet tones. The fields are nicely reflective with moderate mirrors on both sides. There is a carbon speck in the field close over the bust at the neck, another at the lower point of star 13, and one on the rim at IT in UNITED, plus a small rim nick at ST in STATES. A knife edge on the upper part of the reverse was carefully smoothed, most likely done at the mint prior to releasing this piece to the public. Weight 96.8 grains, Breen's series V. The finest graded in BN by PCGS.
