I've fallen down an internet rabbit hole and have spent over an hour trying to figure out which die pairing this large cent in this ebay listing is. I think it's reverse group J but that's as far as I have narrowed it down. From the photos I can see a die crack above leaf 1 and below the C in Cents on the reverse and possibly more on leaf 10 and between leafs 11 and 12. The T in GRATIA on the obverse looks repunched as well.

Looks like a PC59-188 ( Obverse 54b + Reverse J13b )

The leaf 1 DC is only on the late state of J13b.
