Slightly sharper but there are four tiny pitmarks hidden in the drapery folds above the date, two more tiny ones low on the neck, and one more at the rim left of the lower curls, plus a couple faint ones left of the eye. Otherwise the surfaces are smooth, completely free of corrosion or planchet flaws. Glossy medium brown and chocolate sprinkled with darker olive brown toning on the obverse. E-MDS, Breen state II late. The reverse fields are slightly reflective, and there is a faint arcing die crack from the rim through the D in UNITED fading out as it extends to the dentils at ES.
