Fr-567; KM-770; Gad-1012. Tied for finest certified of the date at PCGS with two others (one of which is certified as Prooflike). A tremendous survivor, far superior to those normally encountered, boasting a bold full strike with needle sharp frosty details. The satiny surfaces are smooth with a nice cartwheel effect that pops out when tilted in the light.

Estimate: $2000.00- $3000.00
