Another rare die state, and a stunning coin in all respects. The die state is extremely early, and this coin is known as a "true prime"...the earliest known die state. Almost all of these have a die crack on the reverse, from below 50C, left through leaf tips and top of UNITED. Here, there is not hint of the crack. In 35 years of studying and hunting for rarities in this series, this is the second one I've had...and by far, the finest. As with any super early die state, we expect the strike to be great, the surfaces to be hard, flat and smooth, and the look to be fabulous. Here, we find all of the above are true. The luster is full and cartwheels freely. The flash and originality are truly impressive.
