Description

  • gold
A superb example of this scarce date of which 52,250 were produced. Its fields are even and exhibit full cartwheel lustre. The color is a rich red gold which deepens at the peripheries. There are remarkably few surface marks (fewer than some coins sold as MS 66), with the most visible in the rays on the reverse; there are a few carbon spots on the obverse.
