Size and weight: Coin weighs ~27 gm of ~0.903 silver and is ~39 mm in diameter.

Condition: I would grade the coin as extremely fine with all the details being well preserved. The coin retains quite a bit of its original mint luster, making it very difficult to photograph. The high points in the coin show wear but you can still see the facial features on the rider as well as the horse. The coin is problem free and has a few scratches, minor dings, and bag marks. It has light soiling and a few minor stains. The coin has wear commensurate with its age and circulated state. It is a beautiful, great looking and would make a great addition to your collection. Please see photos for additional condition information.
