Owner Comments:
From the Eric P. Newman Collection. The Type 2 reverse has smaller letters and arrow heads and is more common than the older type 1 reverse. This is a very nice coin with great color and eye appeal. I am surprised it didn't grade a point or two higher than the MS-61 grade NGC assigned to it.
