Slightly glossy olive brown and chocolate with lighter brown toning on the devices. Microscopic roughness covers the fields and protected areas but there is no verdigris. There are a couple old, light scratches in the field before the portrait, a thin vertical fissure on the face of the seated figure, and a tiny chip on her knee. Nicely centered with complete, clear legends and a strong date that is tight to the edge of the planchet. The AUCTOBI error is obvious. Comes with a nice provenance. The attribution is noted on a small paper pasted on the lower part of the reverse. Weight 145.5 grains.
