  There is an 1847 gold half eagle with a similar "1" at the same location of Liberty's neck.

  Looks a little too high - check out the picture in my registry set (IHC's with varieties).

  relicsncoins - Lakesammman nailed it, it's too high to be the S1 "one in neck"
  
  It's just a nicely placed spot in front of the neck. The real deal is obvious when you see it.
  
  Your image, blown up, compared to the finest known 1897 S1.

  Don't have access to my Snow books right now but there are others (other 1897 1 in Necks) than S-1.

  That's news to me. As far as I know there is only one 1897 "1-in-neck". And it's a classic IH MPD variety.
