Tied for second finest certified of the date on either the NGC or PCGS population reports with three other examples, only one finer (NGC MS 62). A highly attractive example of the first year of issue for this three year type exhibiting a bold strike displaying frosty well defined devices and plenty of luster in the protected areas with light signs of handling consistent for the grade. The pale golden color is complemented by areas of light attractive pale orange tone adding to its eye appeal and desirability certain to see spirited bidding from quality conscious collectors.
