LDS with the die clashmarks gone and the rims starting to dish, especially at the top of the reverse. Called MS62 and CC#3 in the Noyes census, his photo #35921. Removed from a PCGS slab graded MS66BN (PCGS label included, and it shows the attribution and Naftzger provenance). Now housed in a PCGS MS66 BN holder. (PCGS # 36829).
