1902'O' Gem Brilliant Uncirculated and remarkably well preserved in light of the generally poor visual...1902'O' Gem Brilliant Uncirculated and remarkably well preserved in light of the generally poor visual appeal of other Mint State survivors from this issue. The strike, though not entirely full, is clearly much sharper than the normally encountered, and is additionally enhanced by an entirely vibrant, satiny glow. The fields and devices furthermore, are wonderfully smooth and unencumbered; there being only the most trivial of imperfections detectable under close examination. Full Gems of this date are very rare indeed, as there are just too many individual characteristics required of Gems that do not regularly present themselves on examples of this date. The coin offered here, nonetheless, is especially appealing and is quite likely within the condition census!
