Comments: Obverse 4 comes fairly well struck, but is already exhibiting die erosion around the stars. Use the repunching on Stars 9 through 11 to identify this obverse die.

Reverse F is also well struck with a nicely centered Small O mintmark. This reverse die has begun to exhibit erosion. Die cracks from the rim to AM(ERIC)A are evident.

Reverse F was previously paired with Obverse 7. The Obverse 7 and Reverse F die pairing is listed as F-111. 

Plate Coin: G. Fortin Collection, NGC MS62
