It's a bit more worn than my other copy but the overdate is still visible. I'm unsure what's going on above the 2, but I suspect it happened after minting. I'm not sure it's the same die as this coin, because of the die cracks and the repunching under the "1". Report this Post to the Staff

First one has flat left side with the knob of the 5 bulging out, second one is more curved like a normal 6. Report this Post to the Staff

And there's another 76/5 that looks like this, with a repunching under the 7. Edited by DVCollector 01/23/2014 1:48 pm Report this Post to the Staff
