I too have not seen one larger and "placed in such a unique position", It would almost seem those covert op employees at the mint have "struck" again,LOL stranger things have happened....Very sweet coin and super sweet, unique find, Mike....PS, I would think this coin would bring much more than $50.00!!

That is absolutely amazing! I have never seen anything like it ........ and would be thrilled to have found it.

No clue on it's 'value' ..... but I dare say that an enthusiastic error collector would pay top dollar to have it ..... well above $50 IMHO.

Great find!
