Not a great justunek, but for this type a superbly struck and preserved coin. Beautiful detail. Intense luster and mint mirror all over. Mint condition confirmed by a very high PCGS grade. This is the highest grade at PCGS and is the only piece with an MS63 grade. Rare date punch. In this state of preservation, the coin is rare and difficult to find on the collector market. A beautiful piece for specialized collections.
