Hmm i don't know if my eyes are decieving me (they probably are), but that obverse die looks different to the regular issue one somehow. Hard to tell from the black and white pics. Check out the ear, the hair that's seemingly going across the top of the ear (i.e infront of and obscuring the top part), looks to be more of it on yours. Plus the double chin has more subtle detail lines on it.
Perhaps it's a trick played by lustre and the black and white photos provided by Coincraft though.
Nice specimen anyhow.
