Owner Comments:

V-7, LM-1, R.2. A marvelous example in an early die state for the pairing, with no visible clash marks on either side and much prooflikeness in evidence, clearly an early strike from the fresh dies. Although there is no Prooflike designation forthcoming from NGC, this piece is a serious contender for such an appellation. Light roller marks appear on the central obverse under a loupe, but otherwise the eye appeal is over the top. The highly contrasting surfaces are most silver-white, with a hint of pink-champagne at the centers. The fields are blinding white mirrors. Essentially unimprovable.
