Reverse B: Medium O, [mm C,H]

        

Obverse 1.2                                                 Reverse B

 

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

        

Comments: Obverse 1 is heavily clashed when paired with Reverse B. Interestingly, Reverse B shows no die clashing which indicates that Obverse 1 had been paired with another reverse die first to produce the clashing damage. More research is needed to find that interim reverse die. The die cracks on Obverse 1 continue to become more prominent in this die state. The mintmark on Reverse B is centered horizontally and is high.
