Comments: Traces of extra 856 digits are visible up in the rock just below the pendant. These extra digits are difficult to identify on circulated specimens. However, the date position is shifted the furthest right of any 1856 obverse die seen to date. Use this diagnostic to help with cherry picking this variety. Reverse G has heavy die lines behind UN(ITE)D. This variety was discovered by Bill Bugert and was first listed by Brian Greer. Also listed as MPD-001 in the Kevin Flynn "Two Dates Are Better Than One" misplaced date reference book.
