This coin shows strong remaining detail with only light honest wear on the high points. Liberty and the shield are sharp the reverse wreath is well defined and much of the original luster is still visible. The surfaces are clean and attractive with pleasing natural color and eye appeal that exceeds many coins at this grade level.
