1877-S
Variety 113
Obverse 9: High Level Date, Broken S and O
Reverse E: Small Filled S, [mm C,C]
Obverse 9 Reverse E
Obverse Diagnostic Point(s) Reverse Diagnostic Point(s)
Comments: The plate coin is the only example that I have seen of the Obverse 9 and Reverse E die pairing. To locate this rare 1877-S variety, look for a date that is positioned closer to the base than the lower denticles in conjunction with a filled S mintmark that is well centered.
Plate Coin: G. Fortin Collection, EF45
