1911'S' Brilliant Uncirculated with claims to the Choice category. Delicately frosted light-gold fields...1911'S' Brilliant Uncirculated with claims to the Choice category. Delicately frosted light-gold fields are strongly suggestive of the matte Proofs of this era. Splendidly precise devices and a crisply defined 'S' mintmark give this example of a scarce San Francisco date its solid quality and visual charm. This Branch Mint issue has long been recognized as scarce in all Mint State grades despite a high reported mintage. The present coin's grade was rated High R-6 in David Akers' research.

Ex Herman Halpern Collection (Stack's, May 1999, lot 2965).
