Specks of greenish verdigris can be found in may of the pits. The only obvious mark is a rim dent opposite the tip of the nose. EDS, Breen state I. The reverse is upset (dies oriented head-to-head) as often seen on this rare variety. Slightly glossy reddish chocolate brown and steel with lighter steel brown toning on the devices. The date and legends are complete and easily readable.
