The obverse and reverse surfaces rough and granular, lightly striated on the front, more heavily so on the back with long linear flaws in the lower right field. Obverse legend indistinct on the right and on UC at the left, the latter due to the die state. The reverse legend mostly gone at left, full at right, date numerals mostly on the flan.
