Comments: The date punch on Obverse 3 is slightly larger than Obverse 2, probably due to a stronger placement within the die. The date punch is also higher than found on Obverse 2, with the 7 digit pointing between two denticles.

Reverse C can be easily identified through out its die states by two die defects. The first is a dot defect between UNITE(D) and the wreath and the second, a dot defect to the left of O(F).

In this late die state, the reverse has a significant die crack starting from the rim at 9:00, through UNIT(E)D, the wreath, (O)NE and ending at DI(ME). This reverse die state also shows considerable erosion around the legend. Reverse die rotation during this die state is left 23 degrees.
