On another day, this Plus-graded Premium Gem might have been considered for an even finer grade, although there is a tiny mark on Liberty's eyebrow and a small speck near the 1 in the date. Even so, CAC recognition is wholly warranted. The lowest headdress feathers are a touch weak at the tips, but there are no other points of strike deficiency. Luster is frosty and untouched. Rich tan-gold color includes wisps of yellow around the borders, adding to the already exceptional aesthetic merit. Great eye appeal, a fantastic piece before the price jump for premium gem examples.
