<p>[QUOTE=&quot;The_Cave_Troll, post: 115236, member: 1674&quot;]Well, my father visited this weekend and he brought this coin with him.&nbsp; One of his co-workers had come across it in his father-in-laws house and had offered it to my father for $30.&nbsp; He doesn&#039;t collect much that isn&#039;t 20th century, so he decided to offer it to me.&nbsp; I paid $45, and am very happy with it!&nbsp; It is an o-104 and the die crack through the hundreds digit of the date is diagnostic.&nbsp; It is the 4th die marriage to use this obverse die (thus all the die cracks) and by the time the 104&#039;s were made the obverse die was <i>very</i> well worn.&nbsp; The pictures in Peterson are of a heavily-circulated looking obverse, since there just wasn&#039;t enough detail left in the die by the time the 104&#039;s were struck to have a good looking obverse.&nbsp; I graded it a VF35 based on that info, so I&#039;m glad to get some other opinions in that range.&nbsp; Thanks for your help guys!</p><p><br /></p><p>Anyway, it is now in my type set (the non-holed one) and I am very happy with it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
