Condition: NGC MS63
A superbly struck and preserved piece. Intense luster and mint mirror throughout. Highest NGC grade. This is the piece that received the highest NGC MS63 grade and is one of two pieces with an MS63 grade (the other in the next auction). In this state of preservation, the coin is rare and very difficult to find on the collector market. A piece for discerning collectors.
