Comments: Obverse 1.3 die state exhibits extensive die cracking. There is a major die crack from rim through Star 2 to Liberty's hand and then down through left side of shield with a final exit point through the 3 digit to rim. Another significant die crack starts at rim, through foot and then along Liberty's right leg. A third die crack noted from top of Liberty's head through Star 8 and cap. Finally, a die crack connects Stars 10 through 13. Reverse D is in an early die state with a die scratch from STATE(S) to rim as the only diagnostic point. Once again, Reverse D is rotated left 18 degrees.
