 Like what's going on. Curious about the orientation concerning the flip side. Was it flipped like a coin or a medal? Thanks, Doug.

It is a premium price of $800 so that's why I ask if it's uncommon and worth that price. I'll post full pics later today

I'm not doubting the MS-66 grade on this coin, I just don't understand it.

I was going to say ALL errors are uncommon but knowing somebody will chastise me for saying that, MOST errors are uncommon if not one of a kind - so if the price is right and you like it - Go for it. We only live once

PS: Error coins should not be graded! Just designated and encased.......anybody else feel that way! Now don't get "error" coins be confused with "variety" coins before you respond!

The slab label is incorrect on several counts. Were the diagnosis correct, the label should read "die cap" not "capped die". Second of all, there's no evidence that this coin was struck more than once. This is a typical appearance for a deeply cupped broadstrike with a first-strike brockage of the obverse design on the reverse face. It is, in other words, the "cup" of a "cup-and-saucer" mated pair. The underlying coin would have been a double struck reverse die cap. The grading services always mislabel these errors.
