It should easily grade AU55 or 58 on a good day. Only the high points show light wear and the feathers are crisp. nlp

 I like the die cracks more than the clashing, looks like multiple clashes also! Very neat, thanks for sharing this awesome IHC nip_coins! "Buy the Book Before You Buy the Coin" - Aaron R.

WOW! Very nice indeed. Did you cherry pick this or did the B & M see the errors?

That's a great looking example and pretty wild clashing/breaks on the reverse. On another note, it appears you have a RPD as well, unless the doubling on the 8 is something else.

All that clashing is what is causing the die to crack and break apart! Maybe the Mint was having a planchet feeding problem that day, I'd be surprised if that die set made it much longer before cudding out and exploding.

Added to the clash and die cracks is that it's a woody too.
LOTS of personality on that coin.

Is that an "L" I see on the Indian?
