PCGS authenticated and graded AU 53. Glossy dark olive and steel brown with lighter golden tan in a few of the protected areas, possibly recolored long ago. Only trivial marks, nothing noteworthy, but there are numerous tiny planchet flakes scattered over the obverse, including a shallow flake between the date and star 1 and another at the bust tip. LDS, die state d. The added die line at the right top of the T in UNITED is sharp and the lump on top of the coronet extends to below the lower left point of star 6.
