Recently purchased this half dollar. Checked the Overton and looks to me like it an O.112a R2. I don't think it is the O.112 R1, because I don't see the die lines below the bust. But, since this coin shares the obverse with the O.120 R8, wanted to check with some fellow Overton collectors. Any input will be greatly appreciated.

    It's not a 120, the 50 C is all wrong.

    I think 112a is correct
