Thanks, Ben. Also, it must be scarce I also don't have it (LOL) in my vast collection of Busties. Congrats on the find.

1) leave it alone! Do not clean, unless you send it to NCS for 'curating'. in good condition red book lists at $800. Also, listed as copper...

Andrew: Is is as described, a die cap. A coin got stuck to (in this instance) the reverse die) and contniued to strike coins while attached....
Isn't that a bit extreme for a typo?
So, what do you think? I have my own opinion, which I believe you already know....
Daggerjon: Yes, I see what you mean. Good means "hey, this is a good coin, right?"
