Owner Comments:

CAC, HM-1, R-3. While the 1838 is readily available to represent the Classic Head type, it is scarce in Mint State conditions. This apricot-gold MS61 coin is smooth and free of all but a few infrequent, tiny marks. Struck from clashed dies, the surfaces retain hints of reflectivity and the motifs are sharply struck. Purchased from Heritage.
