Obverse Diagnostic Point(s)                   Reverse Diagnostic Point(s)

        

Comments: Both Obverse 3 and Reverse 2 have been lapped or polished. The date and lower base are very weak with all traces of the repunched date effaced. Date position has shifted from DR 0L, prior to the lapping, to DR 0C. The die lapping has also flattened the reverse die lettering and removed the spurs on AME(RI)CA. The die crack from rim to AMERI(C)A is very faint.

Plate Coin: G. Fortin Collection, AU50
