Obverse 9 is identified by date placement at LE and date repunching that features initial date impressions to the south below the serif of the 1, to the northwest of the upper left side of the upper loop of the first 9 and to the north above the second 9. Obverse 9 has developed a small die break atop the eighth feather.

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

Comments: Obverse 9 features interesting date repunching, with two initial date impressions below the serif of the 1 digit.
