An ET LIR variety. Sharpness VG10, even better on the reverse, but dark and covered with fine granularity and porosity. No verdigris but there a half dozen pinpricks at the top of the head. Slightly glossy dark olive brown. What makes this piece special is the die state. This is the latest die state we have seen with strong swelling at the top of the reverse and a strong cud break from right of the date to the bottom of the shield. The bottom of the date is off the planchet but it is easily readable and the ET LIR feature is strong. Weight 130.8 grains.
