The surfaces show minor handling marks expected for the grade, but Liberty's face and the fields are much nicer than normally encountered and lack distracting bagmarks. A sharply struck coin with well rounded curls on Liberty, and the eagle's feathers and claws are clearly defined although slight softness is found on the leading edge of the wings. A thoroughly satisfying coin for the grade. NGC MS61.
