1870 Seated Half Dollar Die

[Zoins]

Did anyone here win the 1870 Half Dollar Cancelled Obverse?

 

Any thoughts on whether this is a Philadelphia or Carson City die?

Given the rust and cut cancellation, Carson is more likely than Philadelphia. Where was it found?

I'm not sure where it was found but that would be good to know.

 

I agree that the rust and cut cancellation are very similar to other Carson dies.

Also, Carson is the only place where old dies have been discovered in quantity.
