A new Law: 'The Right To Arm Bears'.

Tiniest amount of wear on the high points, nice rims. Seems to be signs of mint lustre in the legends, perhaps this aspect hasn't photographed too well.

AU55.

1886, obverse 1a, AU details, I would have to see in hand to say it is not cleaned. Stain behind the bun bothers me some.

Thanks guys...I was leaning towards an AU50..

sel_69l... good eye as there is some lustre present..

bosox... looking under the microscope it does not appear to have been cleaned, I'm not sure of what would cause the dark spot behind the bun..
