Obverse 21 is identified by a large die gouge from the denticles at
8:45 through the T of UNITED and a smaller die gouge just above the
larger one. Date placement is at LH, with the date positioned
right of center. Obverse 21 is in a later die state with die flow lines
visible.
Reverse T is rotated 9 degrees clockwise and is in a similar die state
as Obverse 21, with die flow lines visible. Reverse T is also
noted
with a lack of denticle detail from 10:00 to 12:00.
Comments:
The die die gouges of Obverse 21 were applied to the obverse
working die and the
presence of some artifacts within the denticles on the left side of
Obverse 21 seem to be associated with the die gouges. I may
only
assume some flaw on the left edge of the working die was addressed and
the file approached too far into the face of the die.
