Self-cherrypick: not an indent!

I got a bunch of errors a few years ago and I'm finally getting around to taking decent pictures and putting the ones I don't want to keep on eBay. I thought this one was nice large indent... but as I was writing it up it caught the light just right and I looked at at it again and now I'm keeping it. :-)
This might help. It's faint, but I don't think I could be imagining that many letters in a row:

I'm not seeing it! But knowing you, it's something good
Very cool!
HAPPY COLLECTING
I see the 'liber'.... good pick up.... very faint, but definitely there.. Cheers, RickO
Hard to see. Counterbrockage??
I'll defer my opinion to the experts here.
Successful transactions with : MICHAELDIXON, Manorcourtman, Bochiman, bolivarshagnasty, AUandAG, onlyroosies, chumley, Weiss, jdimmick, BAJJERFAN, gene1978, TJM965, Smittys, GRANDAM, JTHawaii, mainejoe, softparade, derryb, Ricko
Bad transactions with : nobody to date
Yup! It's faint, but the full LIERTY is visible in hand. I can sort of also make out an arc that's in the right place relative to LIBERTY to be the rim on the original strike.
I figure this as a broadstrike with a 30% off-center counterbrockage from a 15% off-center brockage. Try fitting that on a slab label! It's in a weird category where it's so rare that it really doesn't have any premium because nobody collects it. I like it, though!
It's one of the most beautiful coins I've seen posted in a bit. Thanks for sharing.
