Owner Comments:
Well struck up, as is almost always the case with the 1933 S, although this one is especially pleasing. Great blazing luster, white in color and with only a few very small baggies.I can't really say anything else negative about it. It is a fantastic coin that is in tremendous condition with one razor-sharp strike.
In general, this issue is usually VERY well produced and many fully struck gems are in existence-----far more than any other early walker from 1916-1933. The surfaces are usually smooth and even lower graded MS coins only have a few moderate wispy abrasions. The luster is usually brilliant and frosty with the few toned coins being lightly to moderately toned. The moderately toned coins often have quite vivid colors.
