Lyman Allen #17.04a - 1909-S/S - (KM #172) - Mintage: 7,578,000 (variety mintage unknown)

S/S variety. This coin was obviously dumped in the ocean so that it would not be taken by the invading Japanese army. Then when it was recovered, it was harshly cleaned with a wire brush.

Date acquired: 2/25/2007 (Raw coin)
Date graded: 9/24/2019 (self submitted to NGC)

Rev.: 10/13/2019
