Date Position

Die Roughness Within The Lower Loop Of The 9

Repunched 3


Obverse 23 is identified by date placement at LE and date repunching that features initial date impressions to the west within both loops of the 3.  Obverse 23 is observed with die roughness within the lower loop of the 9.

Reverse W has yet to be observed with any die markers.

Comments:  Variety 21 was first identified by David Killough, who submitted the above plate coin during mid May 2018 for inclusion in this book based on the Obverse 23 date repunching.
