As ... as any

The dialect was on her tongue to some extent, despite the village school: the characteristic intonation of that dialect for this district being the voicing approximately rendered by the syllable UR, probably as rich an utterance as any to be found in human speech.

Hi. Does “as rich an utterance as any” mean “the accent was on a par with the richest utterance to be found in human speech”?

Thank you.
