Obverse 5: High Level Date, Closed 5
Reverse E: Perfect Die
Obverse 5 Reverse E
Obverse Diagnostic Point
Comments: Most 1858 dimes are seen with a downward sloping date. Obverse 5 and 6 are the exceptions with level date positions. The date position on Obverse 5 is slightly higher than that of Obverse 6. I've designated Obverse 5 as having a High Level Date while Obverse 6 is designated with a Medium Level Date.
