 Obverse 17: Medium Level Date, Misplaced Top Loop Of 8 By Shield

Reverse O: Defective DIM(E)

        

Obverse 17                                               Reverse O

 

Obverse Diagnostic Point(s)                  Reverse Diagnostic Point(s)

        

        

Comments: The top loop of an 8 digit is misplaced directly to the right of the shield above the Y in the scroll. This misplaced 8 digit is marginal visible on this high grade coin and I doubt that it will be detectable on circulated pieces. On Reverse O, the DIM(E) is defective. A large metal blob extends the center crossbar of the E.

Plate Coin: G. Fortin Collection, AU58
