Variety 104
Obverse 3.2: Die Scratches Below Date, High Level Date, Open 5
Reverse D: Rim Cud at 4:00, Die Line Below Bow Knot
Obverse 3.2 Reverse D
Obverse Diagnostic Point(s) Reverse Diagnostic Point(s)
Comments: Obverse 3 shows incremental wear. The die has developed die scratches between 851 in the date and the denticles directly below those digits.
Reverse D can be identified by one significant die line directly below the bow knot and by a prominent rim cud at 4:00. The die pairing of Obverse 3 and Reverse D is rare and should command a reasonable premium.
