This coin is very rare, it’s uncirculated and with a slight goldfish tone is in unbelievable shape. It hasn’t been cleaned nor has it been dipped. The details of this coin are 100% authentic and you can see them all. I’ve checked with 2 different coin dealers about this coin and both are very amazed to see the details this coin presents. They both looked for the coin characteristics to show it was cleaned and both came up negative. It’s a true specimen to say the least. A definite MS grade when graded.
