Glossy steel brown and chocolate with tan faded down from mint color in protected areas. Satiny mint frost covers the fields and protected areas. The only marks are some ticks in the field off the chin and others in the field off the brow lock. M-LDS, Breen state III. The fields are covered with fine radial die flowlines and the rim is failing at the top of the reverse. Unevenly struck with weakness at stars 3-7 and the opposing legend at the bottom of the wreath and UN. Fresh die polishing lines show in the obverse fields, clearest at 18 and around stars 1-3. Our grade is AU50. The attribution and Husak provenance are noted on the PCGS Gold Shield label.
