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

        

        

Comments: The primary diagnostic point for Doubled Die Reverse #4 is the doubling in the upper left wheat stalks. The lower left maple leaves do not show any die doubling on the inner veins and will only show minor doubling on the outer left edges of the leaves. The lack of doubling on the maple leaves allows Double Die Reverse #4 to be quickly distinguished from the other three double die reverses.

Date position is the only diagnostic for Obverse 7.
