Any capped bust Half Dime gurus?
I am trying to attribute this coin with no luck.

The Obverse looks like an 1837 over 7 date.
1837-Capped-Bust-Half-Dime
1837-Capped-Bust-Half-Dime

The Reverse looks like a die break above the Eagles beak.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Any chance that's actually a die clash that's over the eagle's beak?

Big chance, like 100%.

Obv 1 7 heavily repunched at bottom.
Rev KK Large 5C tip of feather over center of 5

LM-1 Usually comes heavily die clashed. If you are using Valentine the variety is V-3a
