<p>[QUOTE=&quot;DBDc80, post: 2801449, member: 84525&quot;]I&#039;d say it&#039;s an original vg. The reverse, perhaps a little higher, as the legend on ribbon is typically gone (or nearly so) at this grade level. The bisecting die crack is a nice touch to the history of the coin. The crack is a result of continued striking of the coin after the die cracked. In the early days of the mint, materials were hard to come by. Thus, in some cases, coins continued to be struck until dies were either virtually worn out, or broke entirely. That&#039;s what we see here on this coin. As for a price, i would say around $900-1000 would not be unrealistic. An interesring variety reflecting the struggles of the early U.S Mint![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
