A select, brilliant piece with beautiful luster going into the mirror.
Sharp relief, excellent detail.
The highest NGC grading note ever given for the 1598 vintage, and the only one so highly graded.
Legend with punctuation in the form of crosses, dot after III, no mark between D G letters.
Definitely recommended.
