Glossy medium steel gray with slightly lighter silvery gray in protected areas. The surfaces are smooth and the only flaw is a chip out of the edge of the planchet affecting the top of the N in IN and the top of the N in NEW. Looks like this was a pre-striking planchet flaw, not a result of "clipping." The date and denomination are strong but the upper part of the oak tree is weak. The legends are strong except for those elements near the edge chip where the planchet is a bit thin. The backwards first N in ENGLAND is bold. A nice example of the Large Planchet with Backwards N type. Weight 71.45 grains.
