I can't quite make the details out from your pictures.

It looks like Obv.2.

Reverse may be Rev. P

My guess is LM-5.

So here is a great link to help you out.

Thanks BD ! - I'm sure now that you called it right with LM 3.2.



Incidentally, it's PCGS MS64

it is the most common 1833 LM-3 remarriage. Available in all sorts of high grades. I used to own a 64, but sold it when I got the plate coin from the half dime book (a 63)



Yours looks like it has nice color to it
