Glossy chocolate brown. No corrosion or verdigris, but there are numerous fine planchet striations and voids, mostly on the obverse, plus an obvious rim dent at the shoulder and a scratch on the cheek. The reverse is much more attractive with a vertical void through the outstretched arm being the only significant mark. Much sharper than the Perkins and Taylor examples. The bottom of the date is off the planchet but the remainder is strong. Not perfect but not at all bad for this popular "Redbook" type. The attribution and Long Island Collection provenance are noted on the NGC label.
