Obverse Diagnostics



Date Position


Obverse 1 is observed with date placement at RH.  Clash mark from the C of CENT of reverse A is visible in front of the eye of Miss Liberty.

Reverse A is observed with a clash mark from the nose of Miss Liberty of obverse 1 through the C of CENT.

Comments:  The proof 1 was one of two die pairings striking proof cents during 1889.

Rick Snow was very kind in allowing me to use his images to illustrate the proof 1 die pairing for this book.
