The first star is joined to the tip of the second hair curl, identifying the obverse, and the reverse has five berries on each side. Cleaning has left the surfaces a somewhat unnatural deep gray, but there is impressive detail throughout. Several shallow scratches are noted in the fields, and there is also a tiny rim nick between stars 5 and 6. Still, a sharply defined and minimally abraded representative. (Registry values: P4)
