Obverse Diagnostic Point(s)

Comments: Business strikes from the proof dies are available and will be found with proof like surfaces. On business strikes, the date punch is weaker than seen on proof strikes. It is possible that the obverse die may have been polished before being reused for additional business strikes. Random die lines, as seen on proof examples, are found throughout Liberty's upper body and within the lower gown area.
