    Please educate me. What am I looking at in the upper right? How does it affect value? Thanks in advance.

    It's an O-110a. It's already attributed on the slab. It's one I'm considering but I don't know much about them. Good to know it doesn't hurt value. Is there a reference for the rarity of that variety?

    MY F15 as you see they have the two die breaks in common plus mine has the weight adjustments marks that is very common on these early mint products.

    Doesn't hurt the value at all, in fact it it nails down the variety. Massive cracks, should by all rights have a massive cud. Interestingly the area between the inner and out crack appears to be sinking trying to form a cud while the outer section doesn't appear to be moving at all and still shows full detail.

    Frankly of the three specimens shown in this thread I like the OP coin the best. It is a NICE coin.

    Looks better on the OP coin.

    Love that "old silver gray", especially on old silver.

    I agree. For how circulated the coin is in post #7, I just don't like the look of those colors...

    I agree...I think the OP's coin is the most attractive of the group. I also agree that the crack does not negatively affect value and helps to prove authenticity.
