Sharpness near EF40 but there are some marks on both sides. The notable marks are a diagonal line of nicks or chips left of the curls, a planchet void at the dentils right of the D in UNITED, and at least a half dozen rim nicks on each side. Otherwise the surfaces are smooth, even choice, and the toning is a very attractive glossy mix of medium brown and light chocolate. EDS, Breen state I, with a linear wave but no die crack left of the curls and no trace of die rust at RICA. The overdate feature is strong. Graded VF35 net VF20 by Noyes, his photo #38985. A nice example of this "Redbook" variety in spite of the marks.
