Obverse Diagnostic Point(s)

        

Comments: The top loop of an 8 digit in visible within the denticles directly below the left side of the second 8 digit in the date. This variety was discovered by Chris Pilliod and was first reported in the Gobrecht Journal.

Examples seen from the Obverse 8 and Reverse H die pair come well struck with strong wreath and denomination details on the reverse but unfortunately, have weak head details.
