Talk about 2 sides being totally opposite! On our Obverse Ms Liberty is broken and cracked just about everywhere! The Reverse...nope! Cannot see anything out of the ordinary with Mr. Eagle!! :D I picked this up recently and I REALLY like it! As usual, a link to the Vamworld page for anyone who would like to know more about what is going on with it can be found below the pics! Considering this for grading and attribution. It's a "Wow" Vam, but not on the current list PCGS will put on the holder. These pics actually came out a little better than I thought, still not great.

    Nice. Lady Liberty must have been visiting Humpty-Dumpty on Wall street.

    That sure has a lot of cracks.... The die must have been close to terminal when that one was struck. Cheers, RickO

    Used Obv die, and newer un-cracked Reverse Die.

    Nice cracks, but fairly common occurrence.
