1895 Variety 26






Obverse 29

Reverse AB



Obverse Diagnostics



Date Position

Repunched 5

Raised Area Above R Of AMERICA


Obverse 29 is identified by date placement at C, lump above R of AMERICA and date repunching that features a wide initial date impression to the west within the loop of the 5.  Obverse 29 was struck from misaligned working dies.

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

Comments:  All examples of Variety 26 I have seen thus far exhibit the Obverse 29 working die misalignment.
