Glossy steel brown blending to light chocolate in protected areas. Smooth and attractive, void of any notable marks except for a round punchmark into the bottom of the shield and two minor planchet flakes over PLU (as struck). A minor planchet clip at the handle end of the plow affects only the edge device. Ample undertype from the Connecticut is visible on both sides, enough to identify the die variety of the CT (Mike Ringo was a savant at identifying undertypes; perhaps he identified this one for the owner long ago. Wasn't me!). The CT was struck twice, once centered and another time about 25% off center. A nice example of a great overstrike. Weight 121.5 grains.
