Obverse 3 Reverse C
Obverse Diagnostic Point(s) Reverse Diagnostic Point(s)

Comments: Obverse 3 has been struck from a rusted die. The die rust is excessive in the shield area and throughout Liberty's body. There is a slight depression in the shield between shield lines 7 and 8. On Reverse C, a pair of die cracks has formed at 10:30 near the rim. The right wreath is doubled at the outer oak leaf and corn ear. Ahwash listed this variety as A-2, but did not mention the die rust.
