I bought this coin because of the amazing die-crack on the reverse.

Nice crack!
fyi... you got a 'Fancy 5' type; it has big dip on top of 5
there is a 'Plain 5' too, it has very small dip/curve on top of 5. I do not think one is more rare then other?

The plain 5 is a bit harder to find, but doesn't bring any premium. I agree on the die crack on reverse, nice! I like when they extend through more than a single letter or two.

I'd grade this 2¢ piece AU50
