Owner's Description

HW Bass Jr Coll Pedigree. Winter Variety One. Lustrous deep yellow gold with boldly rendered design elements and some honey highlights. The surfaces are amazingly choice for the grade -- Mr. Bass knew a nice coin when he saw one -- with nary a mark of any size to draw the viewer's eye. The date is repunched; this is most visible with the 1 and 8. Stack’s Bowers 11/11: 9482; Bowers & Merena 10/99: 953 (Bass II).

NOTE: The haziness by the mint mark is on the holder, not on the coin.
