Comments: As listed by Ahwash in his encyclopedia, Obverse 3 is paired with Reverse E. Obverse 3 has developed faint die cracks that joins the bottom of the letters in UNITED STATES. Another faint die crack connects the letters in OF AMERICA. A significant die crack leaves the toe, through AMERIC(A), then to the rim.
Reverse E is in an interim die state with die cracks throughout the wreath with multiple ones exiting to the rim as shown above.
