Variety 107b
Obverse 6.2: Die Crack Through Date
Reverse E.3: Late Die State, Cracked Reverse
Obverse 6.2 Reverse E.3
Reverse Diagnostic Point(s)
Comments: In the latest die state seen, Reverse E is further degraded with bisecting reverse die cracks.
Locating examples of Variety 107 in this late die state will prove to be very challenging. I believe an R5 rarity rating is justified along with premium being warranted for original and problem free examples.
