Crafted from 90 percent pure gold, the coin contains 0.2419 troy ounces of precious metal. This specific piece has survived the decades in remarkable condition, earning a certified grade of Mint State 62 (MS-62). Its preservation offers a clear window into the early twentieth-century artistry of American coinage.
