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

              

Comments: Reverse BB is cracked throughout most of the outer wreath. It was initially thought that the distinct set of die cracks to the rim at 11:30 and 12:00 would result in a retained cud during a later die state. Instead, a recently consigned example to GFRC indicates that the circular die crack at the middle of the right wreath has progressed to shelf metal and eventually, a full cud. See above image.
