1895 Variety 20






Obverse 1.2

Reverse A.2



Obverse Diagnostics



Date Position

Repunched 895 to the East


The second die pairing of Obverse 1.  Obverse 1 is identified by date placement at LH and date repunching that features initial date impressions to the east within and outside the lower loop of the 8, to the east within and outside the lower loop of the 9 and to the east within and outside the lower loop of the 5.

The second die pairing of Reverse A.  Reverse A is yet to be observed with any die markers.

Comments:  Obverse 1 and Reverse A were initially in service during the 1895 Proof 1 die pairing.

Rick Snow of Eagle Eye Rare Coins was generous in granting me permission to use his images to illustrate Variety 20 for this book.
