Comments: The 1 digit shows repunching above the flag on Obverse 6. This repunching is fairly obvious on higher grade specimens. The (S)TATES has a partial loop.

On Reverse F, the Medium S mintmark has a horizontal file line in the lower loop. The reverse die is degrading with die cracks seen between 8:30 and 9:00 in the outer left wreath.
