1893'S' Very Choice Brilliant Uncirculated with prooflike mirrored fields. Light natural toning over...1893'S' Very Choice Brilliant Uncirculated with prooflike mirrored fields. Light natural toning over the surfaces ranges from tawny gold to iridescent green near the edge. A premium example for the date collector that has long commanded attention. A small mintage of 740,000 pieces keeps demand high for attractive examples in all grades, particularly so in Mint State. The present coin has a couple of trivial reeding marks on the obverse, cleaner on the reverse. A better than average strike with all the obverse stars complete, but some weakness is found on the right claw and lower arrow feathers as usually seen.

Ex Abe Kosoff privately.
