Bid Sale, April 20, 2002, Lot 988, where it was described (in
part) as follows: "...148.4 grains...Deep, reddish-brown in
color with some trivial scattered surface roughness, as made. Nicer than
the Kessler plate coin in terms of detail and certainly nicer than the
other four examples we've offered in the past five ye."
