Coin Description:
One of the highest graded examples of this rare variety, the inverted mintmark can be seen easily with the naked eye. Thick lustrous golden rose patina envelops both sides of this premium gem. The preservation of the surfaces is exceptional but extensive die wear is most evident under the reverse lettering. As is so often the case, full steps are precluded by bridging of the 4th & 5th steps under the third pillar. A wonderful example of a popular Jefferson variety that truly deserves a promotion in point value.
Comments:
A very attractive monochromatic coin and a very underrated Jefferson variety as it is the second rarest variety in mint state behind the 1942-D/D. This coin was purchased for 50% of PCGS Price Guide in a May 2010 David Lawrence Rare Coin auction.
