Then I look down and see it. Wow! Oops!
I had no idea that one could punch the digit of the date in such a location? Someone must have sneezed or something.

Top50SetBuilder thanks as it's in the first edition too as FS # G-003 I couldn't find the Gold section.

Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.
I cherrypicked an 1847/7 quarter when I was a YN, but it was a shift to the east and not nearly as dramatic as the half eagle you posted. Very cool.

That variety was well known long before the first Cherrypicker's Guide came out.
