Comments: In these photographs this coin does not appear as nice as it is in person. There is plenty of mint luster in the fields, and the face abrasions are not as evident.
The clash on the obverse of this coin can be easily missed because of the lack of any clear indication on the face side of the bust. The small clash mark at the neck is only visible in certain light and is shorter than normal. The "n" ans "st" clashes are also faint at best. However, the clash at the rear of the cap is very clear and shows up with out effort.
While the reverse of the coin is a normal die, it is not without markings. The mint mark is fairly well centered and upright. But the eagle is covered in pitting across 90+% of the surface. The frequent polishing out of leaves in clusters 3 and 4 of the left wreath are there.
The fields are not as polished as the obverse, but they are clearly mint state.
