Technical grade AU50 with sharp details throughout, but there is a dull dent on the head that created a bulge at the top of the globe. Small nicks are scattered over both sides, a light scuff breaks the toning on the face, and fine hairline scratches cover the seated figure. Frosty medium chocolate brown. The date and legends are complete and strong. Struck over a NOVA CONSTELLATIO with undertype clearly visible on the shield. The attribution is noted in white ink in the field off the chin. Weight 111.5 grains.
