I like this one! Kinda neat. If you look in the filed / space behind the eagle's left leg, there is a rather distinct little 'berry' The result of a die clash; it appears to be from the sheath of foliage that Liberty is carrying on the obverse; in the midst of the foliage there is a small berry. Location is everything!
Other evidence of the die clash is on the left hand side of the reverse, where some strong drapery lines show up in the fields. Though I did not get a photo of it, there is some of Liberty's shoe showing under the "AM" of AMERICA. Some die clashes are neat!
