Felix Schlag did not die until 1974. He was present at the ceremony in 1966 when the first coins with his initials were produced and he was given...
So what. As I said without more information to judge what is there I can do as well buying a dealers junk box. Sure there might be something...
Actually that coin is NOT the terminal die state. They continued striking those tokens, the cracks get heavier and wider and additional cracks...
