Scarcity: A scarce date in grades G through VF and becomes rare in EF or better.  A few Mint State examples are known 
to exist with proof examples being slightly more available.  This date has the lowest mintage of the With Stars 
Obverse type but is available at a higher rate than expected, given the low mintage.

Comments: There is a defect in the upper loop of the 6 in both business and proof examples.  This date can be found 
with nice surfaces though most business strike examples will have seen heavy circulation.
