Can anyone confirm if this is a known variety? Thanks!

    It looks like surface condition attributable to an aggressive reddressing of the die face post clash.

    Ok... but the markings are so similar to those listed on Wexlers for this year I find it hard to believe it’s not a variety like these others... checkout the ones listed here: http://doubleddie.com/448712.html

    Hi MC - looking at your specimen, there is a crack running from the bottom left of the Memorial to the rim. That's a significant diagnostic that Wexler wouldn't typically miss. That said, the specimen might be from a different die state and not all die states (EDS, MDS, LDS, VLDS) are represented (or known perhaps). However, I don't see the typical bulging in the 8s of the date. Actually, they look pretty uniform in the picture. But I could be wrong, especially with the coin in hand.
