1902
Variety 21
Obverse
24 is identified by minor repunching to the south within the loop of
the 0, with date placement at C. Obverse 24 has developed
moderately heavy die flow lines.
Reverse W is in a similar die state as Obverse 24, with the advancement
of moderately heavy die flow lines.
Comments:
Both Obverse 24 and Reverse W are neither cracked nor
clashed. Based on the die state, the Variety 21 die pairing
would have produced an ample amount of cents.
Variety 21, which was initially identified by this author during late June 2016, may
be further differentiated from similar 1902 obverses with repunched
dates by a deformed denticle below the 1.
