Owner Comments:

Advances in the press for the coins of the 1830's compared to earlier dates gives them better defined devices and rims. This coins is one of those that is better in hand than in photo. Obtained for my 1834 mint set it is not a stand out but fills multiple roles as a utility coin in my set. I began this theme with the 1860 dated coins from my mint set of that year.
