Lustrous light bluish steel brown and light olive with 20% of the mellowed mint color on both sides. There are some very tiny spots of dark toning scattered over the obverse, a shallow low spot covering the neck (as struck), dull nicks on stars 5 & 6, and a nick on the end of the wreath ribbon. None of these defects is distracting and the eye appeal is excellent. EDS, die state a, with fine die lines from the dentils below star 13. Our grade is MS62, tied for CC#8 in the Grellman census. The attribution and Twin Leaf Collection provenance are noted on the PCGS label. 406050.63/84715165 Ex Douglas F. Bird 12/1994-Walter Dudgeon 6/1998 (via Bob Grellman)-R. S.
