1896'S' Brilliant Uncirculated and easily a Very Choice or better example were it not for some subtle hairlines on the obverse. This exceptionally smooth, pale lavender-golden specimen offers an absolutely outstanding ''arm's length'' presentation. Only very close obverse scrutiny indicates otherwise. Well struck, satiny, and quite rare nonetheless.
