- Vivid and lustrous olive-orange surfaces retain ample evidence of a frosty to semi-prooflike finish. Reflectivity is most pronounced in the protected areas around the design elements, and is best appreciated with direct lighting. Minimally marked for the assigned grade with plenty of eye appeal. Similar in rarity to HM-2, HM-6 and even the highly regarded HM-9 Crosslet 4, HM-8 is one of the more underrated die marriages of this issue. It is actually scarcer than its Crosslet 4 counterpart, and with just 110 coins believed extant in all grades will require patience and perseverance to locate under normal market conditions. This is surely one of the nicest circulated survivors from these dies, a coin that would do equally well in an advanced type set or specialized variety set of Classic Head gold.
