I got to go through a bag of a few dozen 20 cash coins today, most bring pretty well used up as is usual. Amongst the trash, though, this particular specimen really stood out. Despite huge mintages, these can get a little pricey when they grade even so high as XF. Note the break in the "P".

What do you think?

Did a bit more research on this today, and have determined the type as being Y-5. Looking at the PCGS population report, only 3 of these have ever graded as high as MS65. Not really thinking that this might actually make MS, or even receive a straight grade, but given the many millions that were struck, the number surviving in anything even approaching uncirculated condition seems to be relatively minuscule.

These usually come very weakly struck. I think this one would be AU-50 and has nice Dragon detail.
