Near-Gem Original, Newtown Collection.. Scattered shades of smoky gray patina stand out against the frosty luster, surrounding by aqua color at the rims. The Tall Date WB-11 is a distinct variety, with a severe downward slope in the date. Additionally, the 1 and 4 in the date exhibit repunching. Most stars exhibit distinct centers, while the eagle’s claws are separated if faintly so. Obverse diagonal marks to the left are as struck, likely a remnant of the planchet rollers. CAC notes 55 pieces in all grades, with three coins in MS64 and five examples higher. The CAC price guide value is $6,750, advancing to $21,600 in MS65. Acquired from Great Collections. Housed in a PCGS Gen 6.1 (2020-2024) holder with CAC approval. PCGS #6252. December 1969
