Technically sharper but unevenly struck, weak at the top of the obverse and bottom of the reverse. Covered with fine roughness and there are traces of verdigris in some of the protected areas. A dimple in the field off the chin, a couple old scratches high on the neck, and a thin scratch in the field left of the chest of the seated figure are the notable marks. Slightly glossy light olive and medium brown mixed with reddish chocolate. Struck a bit off center to K-5. The date is weakly struck but easily readable, and the legends are complete. Weight 134.9 grains.
