Spindel has nearly 70 repunched dates for the 1868 reverse of 1867 Shield nickels.
I've looked through every single one and am having trouble finding a perfect match.
S1-3028 is the closest, but the photos of it aren't the best. Similar repunching of 868 to the south and date placement is about the same. But the lighting in the photos of S1-3028 is honestly terrible so I can't tell if the repunching is supposed to be directly to the south (like on your coin) or if it's slightly more to the southwest.
