All I can say at this point is that I am very sorry for perpetuating the high hopes... I now see the crack on the left portion that I did not see before..... This is a good lesson to me about keeping my big mouth shut.

Zee my friend. we can only start to process our Ideas from what is shown, many times those slight differences are not seen from the coin's photo's shown. yet with more close up photo's we can get a better understanding of what its not, and to gather more info to understand what it is..some coins can be attributed by the date and MM, others require as you know, more pictures that have greater detail of other points of interest...SO KEEP ON TALKING...

The LDS mentions scratches and cracks, so this description is based on a particular die...... this coin displays a break in a different area, so what is th...... oh, this whole thing is just so pathetically inconsistent, it leads me to a frustration level that I cannot deal with..... Eventually, someday, someone, or a board of folks will be challenged to fix this continuing mess, and things will then either be die related or classification related, but not both or either.
