1971-S Eisenhower Lottery

Have anyone seen this article in Coin World on the 1971-S Eisenhower dollar which appears to be a pattern. Evidently it's value is estimated to be 5 figures, and the deal who found it basically won the lottery.

The problem I had with this was, how do they know its a pattern? If it was something very minor, I wonder how it can have that kind of value.
