Owner Comments:

Mintage: 1.8 Billion
Full Step Availability: 0.05%
Date/mm Information: Record mintage, good luster and eye appeal but poorly detailed and full steps are extremely rare.

Coin Description:
A wondrously toned coin with nice luster, smooth surfaces, and an above average strike for the date/mm. The coin is primarily toned in a shade of lime green with splotchy chestnut brown patches scattered about the obverse fields. The obverse devices are gorgeous with bright pink, lavender, and tangerine in the recesses. Some disturbing black toning rests around the peripheries of both sides.

Comments:
Well there is nothing like going out with a bang. The scant population of less than 20 is impressive but is even more so considering I own one of the others. This coin has ridiculous toning and if you narrow your gaze to include only the devices of the obverse, you may see the finest toning ever to appear on Thomas Jefferson's bust. It needs to be stated that the toning on this coin is highly questionable but considering that the quality of this coin is not limited to the toning, it will remain as the final batter in this registry set.
