NGC MS 63+.
Rare and one year issue of Georg II of Saxe-Meiningen this coin reflects highly lustrous fields with sharp uncirculated details of the portrait and the Eagle. Touch of champagne toning with only single contact marks. Low mintage - 20000 only - not too many coins are certified as MS. This particular coin graded as MS 63+ - better for the grade. Great collectible and investment find!
