Reltively common variety, but the later die state is likely more common than the earlier state. Slightly tougher in high grades, with a single MS65 likely finest at the top of the census.

PCGS Graded AU53, CAC. Nifty original example with blue-green and gold toning. Multiple clashes present. Decent luster as well.
