coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/27/2020 1:19 pm I'm seeing a large date copper strike, that the obverse die was over polished a bit. Thus the fields are fairly fresh, but the date looks like the polishing altered it a bit too much. Note. Look at the size of the devices. They are smaller than the normal large date, but the '2' location and shape is a large date. The motto devices are also showing the same reduction of polishing on the dies.
