Is this a GR-4 CB Half Dollar, by chance. Thank you. It was the only one I could find with the 7 top right tip below and left of center of curl. And a possible die scratch below the DS reverse. Thank you.

    Have you tried to compare it to the coins pictured at NGC in their Variety plus section? Or in the extra varieties at PCGS? That is how I identified all 3 of my Reeded Halves. James

    Yes, that's where I cannot match another one with the top right of 7 to left of center of curl.
