MDS, Breen state VI, with die cracks at the top of the reverse and a small depression over the left top of the M in AMERICA. Graded AU55 net EF45 and tied for CC#17 in the Noyes census, his photos #61059. This cataloger's EAC grade is AU50.

Husak Collection.
Dr. Eugene Sherman was born in Bronx, New York, in 1948, attended elementary school in Mississippi, and graduated from high school back in the Northeast. A graduate of the University of Wisconsin, he continued his education with medical training at Pittsburgh, Georgetown, and UCLA. Sherman states that he has been an obsessed coin collector since the age of eight, reading B. Max Mehl's Star Rare Coin Encyclopedia by flashlight under the covers when his parents thought he was asleep. His hobby was put aside six years later, but returned stronger than ever in the late 1980s. He plans on a "long and numismatically rich retirement."
From The Collections of Walter J. Husak and The Liberty Cap Foundation.
