Ten points sharper but there is a thin fissure in the planchet from the rim at the top of the obverse through the nose into the field below. A corresponding fissure passes up through the 7 and front of the harp to the elbow. Otherwise the only defect is a splash of dark toning at the top of the obverse and bottom of the reverse, and the dark areas contain traces of very fine roughness. The planchet is not perfectly round, rather crude in fact, but the devices are bold. Glossy medium brown and light chocolate except for those smaller dark splashes. The repunching on the 6 is clear. Weight 114.8 grains.
