A sensational gem displaying pale undertones of burgundy over fields yielding a distinctive and delightful shimmer, unbroken by any important instances of handling. The finest of the type seen by NGC to also be awarded a "Cameo" designation." This type was minted in large quantities 1931-33 but the SCWC notes that less than 10% of the issue was released. It is now scarce. The Goethe commemorative (KM 76), issued at the same time, is quite a bit more available.
