This was covered in "grunge" when purchased, which I removed with a coin-safe method. The small "bright" areas atop two of the Obverse stars are where a clump of material on the coin covered the surface and prevented toning over the years - that and the light stain on the second star left of the date are the only real distractions. Some minor Reverse marks, the most obvious at the second "A" of "AMERICA", however no significant defects and otherwise without the normal digs, dents, old corrosion, pits, planchet problems, etc. commonly found on these. I think an attractive coin despite the extremely minor issues, with original brown surfaces and obvious luster around the rims - certainly still suitable as a high grade type example.

This seller has enabled "Manual Invoice Approval" on their account. This means that after you complete checkout, you will NOT be automatically redirected to PayPal (if applicable) and will not be able to complete payment immediately. Instead, the seller will review the invoice and may, or may not, add or subtract additional charges, as explained in their policies and/or listing description. When the invoice is updated and approved by the seller, you will receive an automated email notification later, and you will be able to pay the updated invoice as you would normally.
All checks must clear prior to payment of purchase, which may take up to 12 Business days. IF YOU CHOOSE TO PURCHASE MULTIPLE ITEMS, PLEASE WAIT FOR AN INVOICE PRIOR TO PAYMENT. I combine all shipping charges to the minimum necessary to get purchases to the customer. Please be aware that the USPS has recently increased postage for package shipments and Insurance - $7-$9 for shipping may look like a lot, but it barely covers my actual cost. If you have any questions, just ask.
