Near-Gem Original, Gerry Fortin Collection.. Steely-frosted surfaces reveal light, golden patina with a few deeper shades at the rim, while the reverse is equally patinated. Bright light inspection notes a sharp brilliance and vibrant cartwheels. The strike is serrated with complete facial details and upper left reverse wheat grains, typical of Fortin's acquisition requirements. This lot requires in-hand inspection as there is upgrade potential. F-108, with an even date and the mintmark centered under the bow knot. The CAC pop report notes seven pieces in MS64, six coins in MS65, and two examples in MS66. The CAC price guide value is $1,400. This is a pleasing example for the money, attractively toned and reasonably close to the top of the census. Acquired November 2002 via Jason Carter. Housed in PCGS Gen 4.1 (2002-2004) holder with CAC approval. PCGS #4703. December 1969
