The OP's coin is fairly trashed, but it does look like the variety.
I'd love to see an example of an eBay sale in which a bill with ONE leading zero, and nothing else interesting about it, is sold successfully as a...

At first, that's what I thought, but look closely at the photo - it's a '68.
Looks, in the face, like they got the figure right, just messed up the name. Oh, well.
