Type
II Obverse 9 is identified by date placement at B and a die line that
extends from the mouth of Miss Liberty downward into the field towards
'UNI(T)ED'.
Reverse K is rotated 6 degrees clockwise and has developed a die chip
located on the top left corner of the shield.
Comments:
The Type II Obverse 9 die line has been given the moniker
'Toothpick' due to its resemblance of a toothpick extending from the
mouth of Miss Liberty.
The
Reverse K die chip on the top left corner of the shield may be
associated with a die crack, though the late die state of Reverse K
makes it difficult to locate a die crack amongst the die flow lines.
