A scarce San Francisco issue, this near-gem exhibits vibrant white luster across both obverse and reverse, with strong detail in Liberty’s hair and the eagle’s plumage, better than typically encountered for this strike-sensitive mint. The fields are bright with only minimal contact marks, well within the grade, and the “+” designation underscores its premium quality for the assigned level. A challenging date in high-end Mint State. With MS-65 coins bringing $20k+ on the rare occasion when they trade, this piece seems like an excellent value.
