Owner Comments:
A very eye appealing BTW with peripheral autumnal toning in a collage of shades including russet, violet, and golden. Solid luster emanates from very clean surfaces as well as a clean jaw line. The surfaces reflect a bit of the mirror like finish of which some strikings of this issue are known for. This coin is a near condition consensus Star designated specimen with just a single NGC coin finer among the 2 major grading services. Note: a number of die polishing lines are visible on the coin and this photo. These are as made at the mint and do not impact the grade nor eye appeal of this BTW.
