Owner Comments:
This is an example of a very late die state in which the reverse die was failing. Note the reverse die crack running from the final 1 of the date to the rim and the incused star on the reverse at the 7 o'clock position. There is also die damage at the center of the denomination numeral. This same damage is also seen on other late die state examples. Purchased from Stack's FUN Sale, Lot 1115, Jan 2, 2007.
