Owner Comments:

This one is the 1834/4 variety. An R1. You can see the remnants of the first 4 underneath the second with a dot at the right and above the crosslet. Sea green and gold toning dominate both sides of this piece. I wonder how and where this one was stored to acquire this toning? This coin is a translational DM in that it has a large date and small lettering, and a bust of sub design 1832-34.
