Sharpness VG10 overall but several points better on the reverse. There are dull dents that cover most of the obverse, strongest one on the cap. Both sides were burnished and the retoning is an attractive glossy dark steel brown and chocolate. Flowline frost shows in protected areas outside the wreath. The surfaces are smooth except for a pit in the field before the forehead, and there are some dull nicks on the nose and mouth. The date is clear and the legends on the reverse are especially strong. EDS, Breen state I, before die polishing removed clashmarks and weakened some of the finer details of the wreath. The edge lettering is strong and the down-turned leaf following DOLLAR is bold. The first owner of this coin who is known to us was William S. Appleton. He was one of the eight founding members of the Boston Numismatic Society which was formed on February 11, 1860. He served as secretary for the Society until his death in 1903, and his collection was donated by his family to the Massachusetts Historical Society in 1905 (deaccessioned in 1971). A very rare variety that seldom comes in higher grades; only 3 or 4 are known that grade better than VG. Graded VG10 sharpness net G5 and CC#8 in the Breen/Bland census. Our grade is net G5. The attribution and Appleton provenance are noted on the PCGS label. 35510.98/37073633 Ex William S. Appleton-Appleton Estate-Massachusetts Historical Society, Stack's 5/1971:20-Denis W.
