Condition: I would grade the coin as a good extremely fine or better with all the details being well preserved, obvious and readable. The coin is nicely tones, has a few scratches, and some minor bag marks. It has general honest wear, commensurate with its age and circulated status, but still shows all the details very well including the inscription on the ribbon on the reverse. The coin is problem free and is nicely toned. The coin looks much better than the scans suggest. Please see photos to appreciate the beauty of the coin and for additional condition information.
