Went to a show in Norfolk VA this weekend. An acquaintance that used to work for one of the local dealers was selling some coins and I picked up a lot of the reds I was looking for. One was a 52S. He slid this one out of the box for me and I looked and asked if he had another for my Dansco. I had to have this one for posterity! Check out the die brake from behind the ear to the forehead curls. Oh, take a stab at the grade also. I have his twin in the book without the headache. nlp

There's a die crack across the head, often called a 'cracked skull'. They are somewhat common. The coin is MS64RD. Would be MS65RD without the corrosion under the bust.

took a look. I'm sure I have the same on also. but your grade is a few higher than mine. also have one simular but, die break goes just above ear and it looks like Lincoln and ZZ-top got together with some cheap sunglasses!
