These include traces of an old fingerprint in the obverse fields and a couple small spots of dark toning, including one at the dentils left of star 1 and another resting atop the 5. E-MDS, die state a, with the obverse uncracked. Called MS64 and CC#3 in the Noyes census, his photo #30646. Our grade is MS65, tied for CC#1 in the Grellman census.
