This seems to be the only forum where he has posted this where he has gotten a positive reception.
I see what appears to be a die gouge, a die crack, nothing, and another die crack. None of these are really errors.
Collar clash. At some point the obv die was misaligned far enough that the portion of the die that creates the top surface of rim made contact...
O-111 is what I come up with as well.
There are 9 specimens listed in the early date census (Not the condition census) only three are better than this coin. In the Condition Census...
I don't know which variety it is but it is a RPD.
This is a 1795 C-1 struck in 1795. At that time the mint was preparing their own planchets from whatever copper they could lay their hands on....
