Mottled russet, gold, and argent-gray patina over surfaces displaying only minor hairlines. The strike is superb and the fields deeply mirrored.

The rarity is further strengthened by noting that it is also the single Proof example certified by NGC and PCGS combined. Ex. Ernst Otto Horn Collection.
