Double Struck. Five points sharper but there are some very faint hairline scratches at D-STA, all hidden in the attractive glossy chocolate brown toning. Both sides have a few small splashes of darker olive brown toning in the mix. Underlying frosty flowline luster covers the fields and protected areas on both sides. This piece was struck two times. One strike was normal and centered on the planchet. The other strike was against a blank planchet positioned 65% off center against the obverse. The sequence of strikes is speculative. Since there is no trace of doubling from die strikes on either side, it would appear the impressed arc came first. But this is only a guess. What is certain is that this piece is very attractive and the indented arc is obvious. LDS, Manley state 3.0.
