Is the 3 in this 1823 Capped Bust Half Dollar strange, or just me.

Not a collector of CBH's but noticed this coin on ebay and the 3 looks off to me. It may just be a worn die, but I wonder. Opinions.

All 3's look weird on 1823's!
That's an O-103 ... one of several that are considered "Normal"

Looks like a normal 3 to me.... Thanks for including the pictures. Cheers, RickO
Looks original to me, nothing strange for a normal 3.
