Very attractive glossy medium brown and light chocolate blending to darker chocolate brown in protected areas. Sharply struck and nicely centered on the planchet. The notable defects are a small planchet void in the center of the obverse, another on the fleuron right of the shoulder, and some microscopic striations on the lower part of Britannia (all as struck). A tiny rim nick at the top of the obverse can help identify this piece. A premium example of a tough variety, and it comes with a nice provenance. Weight 145.7 grains.
Ex Henry C. Miller Collection, Thomas L. Elder, 5/29/1920:1936 (plated)-John J. Ford, Stack’s 5/10/2005:393
