IMO it's a LDS WB-101. GC has one somewhat similar die marriage example close to my grade:

Just for the record NGC varietyplus has 0 examples for any varieties of the 1870-S 50C.

Also, I do not think it is a WB-3.

It could be a regular strike BUT the '18' of my coin is much weaker and differs from the PCGS regular strike photo:

This is a LDS WB-1 (WB-101).

I based my conclusion from pgs. 152 - 153 of the 'Bugert-Vol-1-SF' .pdf entitled '1870-S':

http://www.lsccweb.org/BillBugertBo...Vol-I-SF.pdf

The LDS WB-1 is the one showing the very weakly struck date and the absence of minute vertical lines in the obv. shield compared to the EDS:

I believe the U-shaped lines seen on my obv shield are negligent surface scratches and not die related.
