The die polishing took out the device. Even the Statue is almost missing. You can see the die polishing on the obverse also. The polishing removes the fields thickness, thus making all the devices smaller than normal. So it is not a good thing. People collect them. I don't.
Coop beat me to it, waaaaayyy over polished, look at the deep file lines, its at this point they don't even bother with a buff polish, just file...get another thousand plus hits out of the die!
You should include the date, mintmark, and the denomination in your titles.
