Owner Comments:

Very few ult/dc's for this year due to master die wearing issue: Ranking #3/15 re: total # of ult/dc's.

Believe a photograph of my coin was placed in Tomaska's most recent book.

Pop at ult/dc level stable last 3 years, zero increase ngc, 1 increase pcgs.

Even though higher US mintage, master die issues that began in '57, weakened ultra/deep cameo contrast. confirming rarity by total # of ultra/deep cameos.

PCGS has a DC 68 & 69 level coin, pop's of 1 each.

ULT 67 top pop at NGC. There are a total of 2, '59 ult/dc's cac'd 2/32, the one in my collection (ult 67).
