In the enlarged view, there is a Brightness button. After all of the years of using Heritage, just noticed that today.

Never noticed it either! Anyway, I wish Dr. coop was still around to explain stuff like this.

I assume it's a combination of circulation wear and the fact that it was struck out of collar (decreased striking pressure due to outward metal movement).

I wouldn't be concerned about it.

Thanks everyone.
Looking a little closer after posting I would agree with Tanman about the circulation and maybe a low pressure strike.

I just assumed the denticles were supposed to be at the same level as the bust and it looked like they were missing.
Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.
We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.

All is well with this coin, which is only a smidge off-center and suffers from a fingerprint. Not a worth a big premium to me in this grade especially.

Currently at $60 with buyers premium. Definitely not worth it to me.

It's a cool coin, but definitely not worth paying 60 dollars, in my opinion.

Tough date for errors - what'd it end up selling for?

This coin reminded me of my 1892 IHC error. Mine was a similar minor off center, but had a reverse indent. It sold on HA for 250! I got it for much less when it came up on ebay.
