1840-O
Variety 102a
Obverse 2: Medium Level Date, Star 9 and 10 Repunched
Reverse B.2: Large O, Rim Cud at 11:30, [mm C,H,TL]

Obverse 2 Reverse B.2
Obverse Diagnostic Point(s) Reverse Diagnostic Point(s)

Comments: Stars 9 and 10 are repunched at their lower points. The repunching of Stars 9 and 10 is the primary diagnostic for Obverse 2.
A reasonable sized rim cud is located on Reverse B at 11:30 during this later die state. There is a faint die crack between UN(IT)ED.
My R6 rarity rating for this terminal die state may be conservative since this is the only example seen since its acquisition during May 1995.
