PCGS graded MS-67 PQ.
CAC APPROVED.
An
appealing coin for both the fully lustrous, reflective surfaces
and a sharp strike. Struck in fully brilliant yellow-gold. As
always seen on the circulation strikes of the year, evidence
of die clashing is found in the fields on each side. The orig-
inal mintage of 7,100 pieces filtered into the post Civil war
era, with most disappearing long ago. Random survivors
today make up the majority that exist.
Pop 5; 5 finer, 2 in
67+, 3 in 68.

PCGS graded MS-68.
CAC APPROVED.
A Superb
Gem with intense luster and exceptional eye appeal. The
rich orange-gold surfaces are alive with deep orange irides-
cence, and the partially reflective fields support boldly
struck and nicely frosted devices. From a modest mintage
of 3,500 pieces intended for general circulation. This coin
represents the single finest example thus far certified by
PCGS.
Pop 1 none finer at PCGS.

PCGS graded MS-67
. This issue is scarce in any
grade, courtesy of the low mintage of only 3,500 business
strikes. High grade coins, such as this, are rarely encoun-
tered. This is one of only nine pieces certified MS-67 by
PCGS, with just two finer. In short, we offer a very high
condition in a coin of substantial rarity. This is a lovely piece
has bright, partially reflective fields and sufficient frosted
luster on the design highpoints. Abundant orange-gold
color shimmers in the fields, and contrasts with the more
satiny head of the Indian princess. In terms of quality and
eye appeal, it would be difficult to ever improve upon this
coin.
Pop 9; 2 finer, 1 in 67+, 1 in 68.
