O.120 Sq 2, Sm 8, Lg Letters R2 Lances description: Super eye appeal! Lovely pastel yellow-gold toning blankets both sides of this wonderful bust half. Touches of blue and amber on the rim. Full luster on both sides. Why is this not MS? Okay, the slightest rub exists on Liberty's breast. That's it. Have you ever seen an MS bust half with rub or friction? Of course. On top of its remarkable eye appeal -- well, as part of it -- are very nice surfaces. Some small disturbances can be found north of eagle's head. Maybe a tiny nick here and there almost too small to be seen without a loupe. Over all, give it an A- for condition. Properly graded? I suppose so. I'd call it AU62.
