An ET LIR variety. At least ten points sharper over most of the coin but unevenly struck due to the planchet being a bit thin at the top. No corrosion or verdigris but there are some contact marks including a trio of old scratches on the lower part of Liberty, a collection of tiny pinpricks in the field around the bouquet, and a group of stronger digs at her feet. Attractive glossy medium brown with smooth surfaces except for the usual planchet chipping in the weakly struck areas. The 87 is weak but visible; the 17 is unstruck. The ET LIR feature is bold. Weight 150.3 grains.
