Sharpness EF40 but there is roughness at OF AMERICA, the fraction, and UNIT. The obverse is smooth and has excellent eye appeal. Attractive glossy chocolate and olive brown with subtle wisps of lighter brown on the obverse. The roughness on the reverse is partially hidden under the glossy toning, but a glass reveals specks of dark verdigris. Just a few contact marks including a nick or short scratch under the Y, a tiny rim nick left of the L, a tiny rim bruise at the second T in STATES, and a dull nick over the N in ONE. LDS, Breen state IV, with clashmarks on the obverse and fine die cracks on the reverse. Graded VF35 by Del Bland. Noyes says EF45 sharpness net VF25, his photo #36329. Ex Charles J.
