Die-variety with vertical sun ray under T of GRATITUD (incorrectly labeled by NGC as Fonrobert-9465, which is another variety). Attractively toned with sharp details and nice contrast, a few heavier scratches on reverse but also with hairlines on obverse, none of which detract from the patent beauty of this piece without magnification.
