There is quite a bit of red showing in hand, but it looks worn. The details are soft, perhaps from the broadstrike? Report this Post to the Staff

eagle_eye_18 Valued Member United States 449 Posts	Posted 01/29/2015 12:54 pm I think it is struck off center and the soft details are due to a later die state but let's see what the pros say. Report this Post to the Staff

If you look at the date, you see the die wear on the opposite direction (inward) but there were several years this happened. So I know it Die Deterioration, but I can't explain why. Mostly the dies from the teens were affected. Great find and a great gift from your Grandfather. Another valuable coin. Report this Post to the Staff
