Lot Title: 1928 NGC MS-66.
Description: A sensational and pristine "very gem" coin that features a fantastic strike and no shortage of opulent velvety luster throughout both sides. Splendid eye appeal is the expected result from a coin with very few defects, and this one does not disappoint. The only blemish of note is a minimal abrasion at the crook of Liberty's extended elbow, with other abrasions on her torso being shallow and unimportant.
