A conditionally scarce issue as most examples circulated heavily, leaving relatively few survivors in mint state. This example displays frosty white mint luster and a bold strike, with light abrasions that are typical for the issue but well within the standards for the grade. The plus designation highlights its superior quality compared to others at […]

Thick satiny white luster with a hint of a champagne accent along the outermost edges.

Well detailed with light gray surfaces.

Very attractive with original lustrous surfaces that are mostly white with a touch of golden-brown. Very nearly mint state!

Sharply struck with frosty yellow-gold surfaces. Marks are few and minor with none of significance. While lower mint state grades are readily available, few pieces are available at this grade level or above. Only 4 pieces have graded MS-65 at PCGS and just 3 pieces have graded MS-65+ with nothing finer.

Outstanding for the grade with booming luster, well-struck details, and attractive original surfaces, with minimal marks for the grade.

Outstanding for the grade with excellent eye appeal. The strike is sharp across both sides and the surfaces are nearly flawless and arguably full red!

Sharply struck with lustrous yellow-gold surfaces and fewer marks than one would expect for the grade. Just 98,000 minted and only 3 coins graded numerically finer at PCGS.

Well detailed with nice problem-free battleship-gray surfaces.
