Well when you consider that without the damage this coin would be well over $1k.....

Coin World has it at $1600. Depends on how much you want to fill that hole. I would be tempted.

I could not care less what the book price is. Personally would rather see an empty hole...or better yet... for $1600 ish find a nice restrike in mid MS.

I'd rather have that hole remain empty.

I'm missing the 1793, 1799, and 1804. I would compromise and buy one with some damage, but this goes beyond my boundaries. I doubt that I would buy it even at a fraction of that price.

IMHO that is damage. I have always thought of counter stamped as an actual stamp and not someone taking a tool and scratching something random. |

That's a real hard one to look at.  'Counterstamp' is too kind for that damage. |

I love early US cents, but that one is just too difficult to love.
Just too badly damaged for me.

A bit high in that condition, good part is the coin is genuine.
