Bust has a curved brestplate, not a straight one, therefore head type 1.
It is not an overdate.
It is not a proof.
It HAS stops in obverse legend.
It HAS stops in reverse legend.
It does not have a 'G' over 'D', either type.

If it has 'OCTAVO' in the edge lettering,
the variety is W3CR-075, (the most common), according to the price scales in
Coincraft's 1998 Standard Catalogue.

That information will help with the valuation in most other less comprehensive pricing catalogues where the value for the most common variety is given.

All that remains now, is for you to grade it.
