Die Cracking (Click Image To Enlarge)


Obverse 91 is observed with date placement at B.

Reverse AAAR is rotated 7 degrees clockwise and has developed the following die cracks:
1.  Moderately heavy die crack from the rim at 6:15 extends upward through the left wreath and exits into the rim at 9:00.
2.  Heavy die crack from the rim at 8:00 extends into the olive leaves and intersects die crack #1.  A partial cud has formed in the area between 8:00 and 9:00.

Comments:  Variety 94 was first identified by David Killough, who submitted the above plate coin during mid May 2020 for inclusion in this book based on the die cracking of Reverse AAAR.
