KM-474.3; Cal-Type 199#823. Tied with one other for the finest certified, this miraculous survivor seems to surpass even the lofty quality standards set for the MS-66 grade, with surfaces that appear free of blemishes and a strike that has rendered every detail of the design in bold, breathtaking clarity. Pale gold tone that deepens slightly and adds a reddish hue on Ferdinand's bust imparts a unique character that makes this minor issue hard to forget.
