Does anyone think this could be a LDS/VLDS MPD Snow-7? Thanks for any help!

It seems pretty obvious in the images in the link you posted and I'm not seeing anything on yours.

It is a later die state than all of the pictured examples that can be found, so it is not as pronounced. Only the part of the 1 covering the top of the third pearl, and the middle of the 1 that protrudes upward between the third and fourth pearl are clearly visible, the part of the 1 that goes over the bottom of the fourth pearl is faintly visible. I took it to a LCS of mine that deals in varieties and he confirmed Snow-7.

I will leave another photo that I think shows a lot better than my previous photo attempts.

One of the deepest punched parts of the errant 1 is between the second and third bead on Snow-7 . So deep that the third bead will never show a round design at that spot , no matter the die state. The third bead on the OP's coin is the round of the original design at that point.
What looks like the base of the errant one through the beads appears to be a hit , post strike.
Beautiful coin but not Snow-7
