Comments: Obverse 8.2 can be diagnosed via a patch of significant die wear starting below the date and ending at Liberty's foot. Star 8 shows minor signs of repunching during this die state. Reverse D, with the die flaws between O(NE) and secondly, between O(N)E and DI(M)E, is later paired with a 2nd obverse die (Obverse 3).
