Highly desirable Zeenut hailing from 1933 with the pesky coupon intact and looking quite fine in its SGC VG/EX 4 holder.  Mission's Fred Hofmann, here in the sepia subset, was primarily known as a backup catcher for the Yankees as the live ball era commenced and was Babe Ruth's roommate for a season or two,  He had a long career in organized baseball and was part of the two World Champion squads with New York (1921 and 1923). Rounded corners - not terribly so- and some extremely minor edge chipping are seen on what's considered a high grade Zeenut, the highest graded of three with coupon in the SGC pop report (PSA has a sole example in Authentic). A remarkable survivor, with a really nice reverse to boot.
