Some hairlines may show under magnification. Overall this is a high quality grade that is tough to find for any issue. The Green Label is reserved for coins that prior to grading, were first selected by experts at RARCOA for meeting a set of quality standards regarding its strike, luster, toning, and eye-appeal.
