It makes sense that they had stopped the dies during that installation

The truth is. It's the smaller version of the 1c-1992 Close AM. The 1992, totals about 5 known. The 1c 1988 rev of 1989, far and away has the most slabs from ANACS, then ICG, then NGC. In total a little less than 100.

I'm sure it will be more interesting now that it has been exposed that a small percent of the 1988 rev of 1989 has a transitional not yet released die clash on the front of the coin it was struck in error on the reverse.

you can look but good luck finding one, especially in nice unc.
i haven't checked pops, although most are probably raw as it does have value but condition is key. circ is almost certainly not worth submitting but each grade in unc it goes up to, makes it much more appropriate for submission/attribution.
i haven't given it an A+ effort but i do look at virtually every 88 i come across and i only found one, years ago.

One thing is for certain... You look closely at the coins that come your way. I have to give you a lot of credit for how hard you work to try to find coins.
I am a newer collector (started April 2020), and I primarily focus on U.S. Half Cents and Type Coins. Early copper is my favorite.

excellent find!
Keep us updated on your discovery pieces! The challenging part will be getting a grading service to see it your way.

Nice catch.... and good pictures to confirm the issue. Cheers, RickO
Very nice. I've been trying to find one of those for a long time.
