Smooth surfaces with only a few minor contact marks, including a nick on the left base of the N in ONE. A small splash of darker toning at the base of the O in ONE is a good identifying mark.

Removed from an NGC slab graded AU58BN (NGC label included, and it shows the attribution and Reiver provenance). DWH #3001.
Estimated Value $40-UP.
