Slight eccentricity of the reverse, but an excellent preserved piece.Mint condition confirmed by high NGC grade. In this state of preservation, the coin is quite rare and quite difficult to get on the collector market. An undescribed R.89.3.c/d (R) hybrid from Iger. A beautiful piece for discerning collectors.
