What do you think? This is one of my most favorite coins, the coin is not in hand, but will be within a few days to a week.

Nope. Bottom loop is too big and it doesn't pass the vertical line test. The loops should not line up vertically starting from the left.
Rest in Peace

Align the dates (red/pink lines)
The top of the eights (blue lines)
The curve of the 7 under the eight (green lines)

The overdate has a flat top of the eight because of the flat top of the seven. Your coin has a rounded top.

You can see the curve of the seven in the bottom loop of the eight in the overdate resulting in a D shaped hole. Your coin lacks that.

Nice job, nss-52. That flat top is a true marker.
