Owner Comments:

NGC graded MS 62
Variety: V-2, Large O

As I dreamed about the beautiful Gardner MS 66 example of this issue, I saw this coin offered on the Pinnacle Rarities website. I inquired about it and asked for it to be brought to the Fall 2014 show in Baltimore. There I examined it, liked it, and bought it. Most V-2 examples were made from an eroded die, producing the mushy looking date and lower right of the design. This coin, being graded only 62, has some marks and minimal luster.

Luster: 1/1
