No corrosion or verdigris, but there are numerous light hairline scratches on the face and in the field to the right. The date is clear and about half the reverse remains visible (although much of the reverse is gone thanks to the very late die state). LDS, Manley state 5.0, with die cracks and heavy swelling covering much of the obverse. Weight 79.3 grains. Davy #97.1.12.
