Looking at the Date and Mint mark , to me it seems to be a match .

The clash I cant tell if it left any "letter transfer" -

but curious of opinions ..

Looks like there is a bit of the doubling in the middle of the upper crossbar in the "1" like described in the listing info

Hard for me to tell if there is letter transfer here , open for opinions ?

The "S" in trust looks goofy to me , but is this just from normal "DIe Wear?"

Again an area I have a hard time with . curious if anyone can spot anything in the hair vee just above the date ..

This is the coin in the grading section as well .. it is in a PCGS holder so I apologize for the "Glare" in some photos ..

But thanks again to anyone that can shed some light on them areas I'm unsure about ..

I personally would not confirm this attribution, only because, your photo's are much better than what is listed
on VW,, your die scratches within the MM are dead give away's
to an attribution, however I must say, if the I and R values are low...its too common and detailed photos will not be present to ascertain its definitive attribution...
\ WHY..........
Perhaps in the future...even COMMON coins will have definitive photo's posted. so we won't have to ask if this is a great coin....
For now, only the details of the sought after coins have all of the pic's and details showing there attributions of interest...Gene

Ohh yea , I'm aware its common lol .

and not that I'm going to "pay" to have it properly attributed .. not worth it .

Just tring to Learn the art of VAMMING with some older slabbed coins I have laying around is all ..

Wanted to "CONFIRM" it for my notes .. nothing to do with "VALUES" or "INTEREST" honestly .. No plans to sell , nothing more then learning .

I had the VAM down , Was just the "Letter transfer" I had questions about since I'm learning about it ..

I appreciate your time you took to reply tho
