Sharpness near mint state but cleaned and retoned glossy medium brown and chocolate with a small splash of darker olive brown toning at the base of the T in LIBERTY. The only contact marks are a few tiny ticks or planchet chips on the cheek and a couple more on the bottom edge of the bust over the 82. Sharply struck MDS, Manley state 2.0. The repunching at the 6 is strong. This is the plate coin for the variety in the second edition of the Cohen book, and it comes with an impressive provenance.<p><i>John Work Garrett-Johns Hopkins University-Bowers & Ruddy 11/28/79:23-Bill Weber (via Robert W.
