Comments: Obverse 20 remains perfect while Reverse V shows light die cracks that encircle the wreath and become more well defined into the mintmark. Note the misplaced 1 digit in the base and the oblique date punch.

Two separate die cracks connect the mintmark to the left and right ribbon ends. See Variety 123b for a mapping of the reverse die cracks.
