PCGS Designation: 9873

Certificate: 34169366

Grade: MS65

Obverse Die:  Normal Die

Reverse Die: Normal Die

Stars:  13/34

Notes:  This coin is uneventful because of a lack of features.  The discoloration on both sides is more foreign matter from storage than toning.

Both the obverse and reverse seem to be nearly complete strikes with most of the detail on Traveler showing and almost a complete complement of reverse stars.  These features rarely appear without a strong strike.

The reverse also shows a few die cracks at the bottom of the left wing, but nothing more.  This must be early use of this die because there is almost no sign of the collapse of the lettering at the rim.

This is the same die pair used on coin 34467943, also an MS65.
