Noted on the slab as damaged and cleaned.
Actually, they are redundant, as the damage is that the obverse has been
cleaned harshly enough to remove the mirror proof surface on this side,
though it retains the great detail from the original sharp Proof strike.
The reverse just happens to be a flashy, beautiful cameo Proof 64 or
better! One wonders what caused somebody to scrub the obverse so harshly?
