Glorious two-tone Deep Cameo contrast between the devices and watery mirror fields. A hint of light gold toning is found near the rim, with the balance of the present specimen utterly white in color. There is one minute rim disturbance at 4:00 on the obverse, and this barely warrants mention. No hairlines of any significance are seen, and the surfaces are as nice as one could hope to encounter. A thoroughly satisfying Gem Proof which will dazzle any collector who views its many charms. Certainly one of the finer examples from the paltry mintage of 600 pieces.
