Bid Sale, April 19, 2003, Lot 1082, where it was described (in
part) as follows: "...The color, surfaces, and detail all
suggest a grade of Extremely Fine, but the dies were out of parallel
when this coin was struck, resulting in flat to no details on the top of
the obverse and the bottom of the reverse. We're not sure how this
figures into the Condition Census, but if the Taylor piece was better
than the Pine Tree piece (which was called Condition Census), we'd
prefer this one over either of those..."
