BACKGROUND
This coin had been held in storage by a U.S. collector for years/decades, and I acquired it last Fall given its superior quality, 138-year age and rarity (mintage = 1.4M). Now it's time to come out and be enjoyed in someone else's prestigious collection.
PICTURES / QUALITY
In regard to the pictures, capturing the exact luster of any coin with a camera as it is seen in-person by the naked eye is surprisingly difficult. These pictures at 500-1,000x magnification are not exact but still a good representation of the actual coin, even though many of the surface marks are highly exaggerated and not nearly as visible and predominate when seen in person.
