This is an [010] embossed Armstrong TW with a nickel impression on the top of the dome. The impression is too weak to allow for a determination of the date on the nickel, but the insulator itself is from 1961. It has a few micro flakelets - one at the edge of the upper ring above Jeffersons head, another at the base under the "60." and another under the n in Armstrong. There is a smaller-than-matchhead-sized pingflake off the edge of the lowest ring above the "W". The base has a thin line of wear encircling it, and there are a few other micropings on the insulator. The top of Jeffersons head is pointing toward the front of the insulator. $145 postpaid.
