I would have loved for this coin to be of that variety, but it would have cost me lots more...

Yes. I've only owned one of those over the years. A fellow board member mercilessly relieved me of it perhaps 25 years ago. One day, I may forgive him.

It has that original look, combined with pretty strong strike through most of the central devices, especially on Liberty's hair and shoulder clasp, as well as on the eagle, which I find appealing for this type.
