Owner's Description

Satiny and vibrant, full mint luster shines nicely through an overlay of silver-apricot and pewter gray iridescence, Sharply struck over the focal features, with no worrisome abrasions. Notice too the bold definition of Liberty's hair curls as well as the eagle's feathers with are sharp. These were struck on the still new steam coining press, which created more evenly struck coins and precise rims as well. A pleasing example of the short lived type issue.
