[QUOTE="Marshall, post: 969212, member: 21705"]OK! How's this for wishy washy. After looking at this late state O-103 side by side with your coin, they do NOT have the same breaks though they are in the same area of the Reverse. The O-103 has the break through O and yours has it through F if the comparison coin is properly IDed. They ARE the same obverse. This comparison coin has breaks higher through LIBERTY and left through the rim which your's does not. So your coin couldn't be a terminal die of the Obverse. There is mention of an interupted die marriage and perhaps they had to smooth off the rough area your coin shows. Double check whether it is raised or lowered if you get a chance to see it in person.
