cf. KM-Y-133 (for regular issue); Duan-2241; Sweeny-CN17. Tied with just two others for the top spot in the PCGS census, this incredible near-Gem radiates with intense brassy-yellow hues and endless blazing luster. The strike is expertly rendered and sharp, while the incising of the dies presents the level of majestic precision that one expects and demands from Birmingham's Heaton mint. A VERY RARE offering, especially full of this much eye appeal.
