Owner's Description

Satiny cartwheel luster is complimented by beautiful reddish-orange color that greets the viewer from both sides. The surfaces are generally free of even minor abrasions. Softness of strike over the top of Liberty's portrait, the highpoints of the reverse eagle and some of the obverse stars is characteristic of virtually all examples of this issue. An absolutely stunning coin that is the finest known. Bowers & Merena 11/09: 3713; Heritage 3/04: 6221; Heritage 11/03: 7500. Images provided courtesy of www.raregoldcoins.com.
