Amazing coin! Love it!

On quick examination, i really believe it to be an S-13. I am certainly no expert on this (still learning), but have posted this on another site I frequent that have some Large Cent experts. Hopefully one will confirm soon.

Below are some images from Heritage Auctions that show a Fine condition S-13.... If you look at the I in Liberty, look closely at the double dots above the I. The spacing of LIBERTY between the letters, as well as distance from the beads on the outer rim also appear to match. Additionally, the 1/100 on the reverse seems to match. I was able to use the power of elimination for this year... eliminating ones that did not match at all. I was left with the S-13.

Hope this helps!
