Not having any luck looking on ebay for one of this variety so, once again turned to my previously-searched hoard.
Happy to have found this specimen [barely] being that grime was around most of the mint mark's perimeter and hid that western arc. I did happen to catch the faint form of the little mound that would have been the secondary's serif [downward-facing arrow] that I cannot currently get a pic of.
About the only reason I found this coin is because I was specifically targeting the mint mark location. The biggest challenge of searching circulated coins is the grime that hides the clues -- Which why I have stored all my coins and separated them by year and mint mark [for the eventual re-search].
