Owner Comments:

1885 the key date. The strike is a bit soft, look at the hair above Miss Liberty's eye. That is the place that first shows weakness. That and the small mark on liberty's cheek, I think, kept the grade from being higher. Also a slightly off center strike as shown by the thicker rim and denticles at 12 and 1 o'clock with a thin rim at 6 and 7 o'clock om the obverse.
