PCGS Designation: 9873

Certificate: 20538335

Grade: MS64

Obverse Die: Normal Die

Reverse Die: Normal Die

Stars: 13/35

Notes:  It would be difficult for this to be anything but one of our favorite coins with the excellent toning and a well above average strike.  All 35 stars are visible on the reverse and there is good detail to the devices on both sides.

There is no die doubling.  If there are die cracks they are obscured by the heavy toning.  The toning is indicative of early color, but in the second cycle of color where oranges and yellows dominate.  On Traveler's tail and around the legs there is some green color which is in the third cycle of toning, so the coin is progressing in a logical sequence.  The reverse shows some of these same colors but obviously in just spots.
