Obverse 35 is observed with date placement at B.

Reverse AL is observed with a large retained cud between 5:00 and 7:15.

Comments:  The right side of the retained cud of reverse AL was defined by a die crack from the rim at 5:00.  This die crack at 5:00 is identical in origin and direction of progression  to the die cracks of the reverses of variety 35 and  variety 37, where reverse AM of variety 37 has also developed a retained die cud.
