Lettered edge. Medal turn. Nicely blended chocolate brown and mint red, with more original mint color on the obverse than reverse. Struck with a different die alignment than the previous piece, coined from the same dies but in an earlier state before the rim break below the date. A little soft above the central reverse, but choice in appearance and problem free.
