Die Crack (Click Image To Enlarge)


Obverse 62 is observed with date placement at C.

Reverse AAJ has developed the following die crack:
1.  Moderately heavy die crack from the rim at 9:30 extends upward through the outer edge of the left wreath and exits into the rim at 11:00.

Comments:  The Reverse AAJ die crack may portend a die break between 9:30 and 11:00 during a subsequent Reverse AAJ die state.

Variety 60 was first identified by Walter Seiller, who submitted the above plate coin during mid May 2023 for inclusion in this book based on the die die crack of Reverse AAJ.

Plate Coin:  Walter Seiller Collection, XF40 Details
