Significantly sharper, especially on the reverse, but this piece has the look of a copper than was lost in soil for a while. The surfaces are slightly rough, especially on the obverse, and the toning is a slightly glossy dark olive with a thin greenish patina. The only marks are some faint hairline scratches hidden in the toning on the obverse. The obverse is clearly misaligned to K-3 while the reverse is better centered on the planchet, and there is a small tab on the edge of the planchet off the mailed bust (as struck). The date is nearly gone but many of the legends are strong. Weight 149.4 grains.
