Comments: An early date that presents numerous repunched date varieties and cracked reverse dies.  Most 
examples come well struck. The repunched dates of Varieties 103, 107, and 108 are available through 
searching at major shows. Variety 102a, which shows repunching above the 8, is rare and should bring 
a very strong premium, if located.
