1917-D Type II. MS-64 FH (NGC). Brilliant and lustrous. However, weak at the center of Miss Liberty, light on several of the shield rivets, and light toward the top of the date. On the reverse the eagle details are similarly light. A "poster example" of why a descriptor beyond "FH" is essential for true connoisseurs to use. Still, the coin is what it is, highly lustrous and attractive.
