Comments: In a slightly later die state, Obverse 4 is paired with a second reverse die.

Reverse F can be identified by a series of parallel lines that run diagonally from behind DIM(E) up to the right wreath.

The Obverse 4 and Reverse F die pairing is more available than the Obverse 4 pairing with Reverse E, the rusted reverse die variety.
