Steel brown and chocolate. Mostly smooth with traces of microscopic roughness on the obverse and minor contact marks. Unevenly struck with weakness at LIBERTY and the opposing area at the bottom of the reverse. Otherwise the details are clear. Rare LDS, Breen state III, with a very strong crack arcing through STAT. The crack at STA is at least a full millimeter wide and the area outside the crack is clearly falling away as a retained cud. A great die state and extremely rare as such. Our grade is G5. The attribution and Higgins-Ellsworth provenance are noted on the PCGS label.
