travelcoin Pillar of the Community United States 1122 Posts	Posted 04/27/2020 11:17 am As most of you know. I've posted this coin before. I think, I found a die match. I guess that might be expected since this is a rare issue. The latter two were sold by big time auction houses. Report this Post to the Staff

The varied degrees of wear make the assessment a bit challenging, but there do seem to be a lot of correspondences. Nicely spotted. Report this Post to the Staff
