Obverse Diagnostic Point(s)

Comments: Ahwash notes several die cracks on Reverse A. He states, "Die crack from rim through (O)F to upper tip of wreath. Another from left second berry, up past UNITE(D S)TATES to rim." However, I have not seen a later die state specimen that features these die cracks.
