Owner's Description

Brilliant centers contrast nicely with the steel blue peripheries and rims; an appealing example with a bold strike. This is the second year of issue of the new Gobrecht design. and all of these were struck in the original format without the additional drapery added at Liberty's elbow starting midyear in 1840. Hence they are a distant and short lived type coin. Furthermore this is a scare condition rarity at the choice grade level as few were saved and most fall well short of the attractive surfaces and mint freshness of the present coin.
POP is 9 in 63 with 13 better.
