KM-33; Cal-1035. Weight: 12.78 gms. This Lima cob exhibits various marks on its obverse, including a few deep parallel gashes. Although this damage earned the coin its details designation, it still offers rather complete details and eye appeal.

The coin offers a lovely deep gray toning with hints of rosy color throughout. To view all items from the Pat Johnson Collection, click
