Obverse Diagnostic Point(s)
Reverse Diagnostic Point(s)
Comments: Ahwash designated Obverse 2 as having a repunched 1 digit. He indicated that the repunching was above the left foot of the first 1 digit. A macro photo of this area on the die is shown above. The repunching is minor and would be difficult to identify on a circulated coin.
Both Obverse 2 and Reverse B are clashed. Reverse B shows significant die cracks in the left side of the wreath. This will be typical for 1891 dimes.
Plate Coin: G. Fortin Collection, AU55
