Obverse 6.2 Reverse F.2
Obverse Diagnostic Point(s) Reverse Diagnostic Point(s)

Comments: In a later die state, Reverse F is heavily clashed. Obverse 6 appears to have been polished or lapped. Note that the date digits are smaller with the space between digits being larger than Variety 106. In this die state, Obverse 6 shows no signs of die clashing. Was Obverse 6 polished after being clashed with Reverse F? Additional research will be needed to answer that question.
