This looks like the 1842 Medium Date, Large Letters variety. It was struck in a closed collar so it's diameter should be close to the listed 30.6...
I read in the WSJ this morning that the passed OMNIBUS bill says that if you are single making less than $75k, you get a $600 check. Married...
Won an auction Sunday night (Dec 20th), paid for it right then, and coin arrived this afternoon (CA to FL) by USPS. Several Christmas cards (OR...

Now, that's what I call a solid mandate! Dinner's up so I'll wait for an hour or so.
I posted earlier that I believed it is a proof and that was based only upon looking at the OP's photos of the coin. I have since looked at it...
