1948-S Booker T. Washington Memorial. MS-67+ * (NGC). CAC.Beautiful semi-prooflike surfaces are brilliant in the centers with halos of iridescent powder blue and reddish-apricot around the peripheries. Exceptionally well preserved for the type, Washingtons cheek is particularly impressive for its smooth appearance. As one of the most attractive examples of both the type and issue that we have ever handled, this premium Superb Gem is equally well suited for inclusion in a high quality type set or specialized collection of classic commemorative coins.
