Owner Comments:

Another new addition to the collection in 2020. The Philly mint was doing better with the quality control issues but the masters were getting old and this created dies that were missing detail like Lincoln's beard. This example boasts fantastic color and clean but slightly busy surfaces, but as usual the design details are soft even though the strike is full and as crisp as it gets. Housed in a current generation NGC holder.
