Owner Comments:

CAC Approved. Medium Letters, Plain Hair Cord (N-3). Lustrous medium steel brown and light olive with a third of the mint red remaining on both sides. The only notable marks, and they are trivial, are a small puff of darker bluish steel toning at the dentil tips right of star 11 and faint traces of an old fingerprint on the front of the face. MDS. The die cracks on the reverse are clear (an un-cracked example is unknown) and fine die clash marks are visible on both sides. Not seen by Noyes or Bland. Tied for finest RB of the variety at both services.
