Sharpness better in those areas that were well struck but there are numerous small planchet chips on both sides plus a few more noticeable flaws on the head of the portrait and chest of the seated figure. Lightly cleaned, now rather glossy tan and light steel brown. A light rim bruise over the O in CONNEC is the only notable contact mark. Struck slightly off center to K-7 leaving the date off the planchet. The AUCTOPI error is complete and clear. Not perfect but still at the lower end of the condition census for this very rare variety. Weight 135.7 grains.
