Glossy grayish steel. No crud or marks, but the planchet is uneven causing weakness in a couple of the letters. The date and denomination are bold and the recutting on the date is obvious. The obverse is slightly off center to K-8 but the reverse is nicely centered on the planchet. A very nice example of this tough denomination. The "Large Date" version is from the same die pair as the "Small Date" type, but the date was reengraved to strengthen it partway through the die marriage thereby creating larger 662 numerals. Weight shown as 10.8 grains on the PCGS label. Listed on page 35 in the "Redbook."
