Satiny surfaces are lustrous and uncommonly smooth for the assigned grade. The strike is well centered on both sides and impressively sharp in an example of the 1823 O-106 dies. The late state of this variety, O-106a, is sometimes referred to as the Tampered 3. While not as pronounced as the Broken 3, Patched 3 or Ugly 3 varieties of the issue, O-106a exhibits either a die break or reworking to the back of the 3 in the date that has given that digit an irregular appearance. This is an impressive Mint State survivor that will certainly appeal to early half dollar variety enthusiasts.，PCGS# 6131. NGC ID: 24FJ.，，Acquired from Bowers and Ruddy Galleries, date not recorded.
