This is a second example here but this one was slabbed as MS62. Also, while these were described in the past as re-struck in the 1960's, a high end auction house now just lists them as 1960. Assuming this is correct, there should be someone there within living memory of the circumstances and purpose of these restrikes (tourist pieces similar to N. Korea?); all other types/denominations of restrikes were probably minted in 1960 as well.
As this variety restrike seems to coincide with version 2 originals (the most common), these restrikes could be used as a basis upon which to classify and delineate the original varieties.
