This particular specimen has survived in remarkable condition, earning a certified grade of Mint State 65 plus (MS-65+), which highlights its exceptional preservation and lustrous appearance. Struck from 0.900 fine gold, each coin contains 0.9675 troy ounces of precious metal. Because it was minted in Philadelphia, it bears no mint mark. The design represents a high point in United States numismatic artistry, combining technical precision with striking visual depth. Discovering a coin in this high grade offers a rare glimpse into the pristine quality of early twentieth-century American minting.
