1863 Variety 16






Obverse 16

Reverse R



Obverse Diagnostics



Date Position

Repunched 6

Die File Marks By The Ear


Obverse 16 is identified by date placement at LH, die file marks by the ear of Miss Liberty and repunched date that features an initial date impression to the northwest within the lower loop of the 6.

Reverse R has yet to be observed with any die markers.

Comments:  The Obverse 16 die file marks are readily identified by the three horizontal die file marks to the left of the ear and the file marks that extend to the southwest below the ear.
