Boldly lustrous fields are aglow with iridescent blue-brown hues, with hints of rose and gold inhabiting the areas in and around the devices. The peripheral strike is bold, featuring the usual strong legends and denticulation encountered on this Nichols find variety. The central strike is a bit softer, resulting in weak definition in the central hair strands and the leaves in the wreath. Overall, here is a very appealing specimen of this variety whose only detraction is a barely noticeable verdigris spot below 'N' of CENT.
