Obverse 26 is identified by date placement at LE and date repunching that features initial date impressions to the south below the serif of the 1, within the northeast corner of the lower loop of the 9 and to the north above the flag of the 5.

Reverse AA is rotated 5 degrees clockwise and has acquired clash marks presumably from a clashing event with Obverse 26.

Comments: The initial date impressions of the 1 and 9 digits were previously unidentified prior to publication in this book.
