I picked up this one from my LCS for junk price because it was looking uncirculated.

Turns out it had a pretty nasty lamination

I discovered it when I felt the design with my finger. "The design is sharp. Really sharp. Ow"

Turns out there were some die clash lines too

Don't remember what years exactly are rare from this timeframe, but there is a small number in the star on the reverse (side with 50 PTAS). Certain numbers (within the star) for certain years are worth substantial premiums.

Now when I compare this piece to a "normal" one, it turns out there's a die crack line acting as a "tounge" of the eagle.

The number I spotted in the star is infact 68, not 58. There's a reason I have spectacles
