Tight lines, even strike, no distracting die cracks.
Technical Grade 64. Eye Appeal 7/10.
I like it.

Except for the huge rim ding on the reverse at K3

it looks au58 to me. the coin is well struck which is in itself unusual. All the reverse stars are struck sharply and well centered on both sides. the diamond in the reverse crescent looks flat and rubbed at the high point. nice coin.

The slightest time in circulation immediately blurred the star outlines toward the tips. This shows no such rub.

decent strike. a little weak in the leaves on the reverse. surfaces are quite nice with a few hairlines but nothing distracting. MS63+. i'd put it in my collection without hesitation.

Thanks for all the inputs. I have bought the coin. Should fit nicely in my CAPS 1800's Type Set.
