Baker-1, Breen-1188, W-10130 variety.
The finest example of this issue we’ve seen or traced in 150 years of auction catalogs and reference book plate photos, and the only one with any appreciable mint red remaining.
This piece also lacks the striations at the rim seen on 98% of surviving specimens, making it a special example indeed.
Note that this coin has been verified by CAC (after the slab photo was taken).
Ex Stack’s April 1996 sale of the Jack Collins Collection of Washingtonia, lot #1.
