Hello, and Happy Thanksgiving to you as well. It appears that your coin has a die clash or die crack in the third photo. In the fourth, more die displacement occurs on the lettering. I'm no pro, but that's what it looks like happened. Happy Holidays!

Not seeing any clash or cracks on the reverse, but the die gouge above the head is a listed die marker and I also pointed out the distinct bit in the upper left of the 5th bay as it is also visible on the Coppercoins listing and probably stronger than the one above the head. Given the spread on the L I looked quite hard to see if I could pick up any other doubling on the obverse but honestly could find none.

Probably the coppercoins example is a later die state. Thus some of the die flow and other markers hadn't happened on the die that struck your coin yet?
