Comments: On Obverse 4, there appears to be the faint outline of an extra digit punch to the left of the pendant. This die defect has a limited arc and cannot be called a misplaced digit with any certainty.

On Reverse D, a horizontal die mark connects the ME in DIME. There is die doubling on the outer edges of the maple lead in the lower left wreath.
