Variety with two sixfoils at the base of the harp. Glossy light to medium chocolate brown. Smooth and void of marks, but the details are mushy, as always, due to the condition of the dies. Fortunately the legends are all readable and the two sixfoils are clear. The color and surfaces are consistent with a higher grade coin, but the mushy dies make assigning a high grade rather difficult. A popular "Evasion" copper of the period. Weight 98.2 grains.
