Description

1854 Type One MS 65. Intense, orange toning adds to the deep, satiny surfaces to create a dramatic visual image. Well struck from clashed dies that must have contacted each other on several occasions, as the clash marks on the reverse show slight shifts in the positions of the dies relative to one another. This is a lovely coin which stands head-and-shoulders above its peers. From the Faraday collection, purchased by Mr. Faraday in 1967 from the Little Mint of San Francisco.
