Reverse Y is rotated 6 degrees counter clockwise and develops a cud between 2:30 and 4:00.
Comments:
The obverse of the above plate coin suffers from extensive
weakness of strike on AMERICA and the date. This weakness of
strike is due to the presence of machine oils and/or grease filling the
recesses of the working die that were created when these letters and
numbers were hubbed from the working hub and digit punch impression.
Therefore, the weakness of strike of the above plate coin is a
product of strike rather than a die characteristic of variety 25.
Variety 25 was first identified by this author during late December 2016.
