Slightly sharper but there is a small rim bruise under the date and another slightly larger one opposite the end of the nose. Rather glossy medium chocolate brown with extremely fine roughness in the fields and protected areas. MDS with significant die failure at the left top of the reverse that nearly obliterates STA. The date is bold. The upper half of the fraction is clear but the denominator is relatively weak. A decent example of this tough “Redbook” variety. Noyes photo #36185. Comes with a 1997 Grellman grading card as net G5.
