Obverse Diagnostics
7th Feather Bar
Comments:
Date placement is LH. This obverse is observed with a heavy die gouge from the 7th feather to the M of America.
According
to Rick Snow, the reverse exhibits a heavy die line from the rim at
3:00 to the rim at 1:30, which just touches the wreath on two leaves.
Die crack from 1:00 to the right wreath and another from the left
side of shield to the top of the left wreath are evident on the plate
coin, but not mentioned in the Rick Snow's attribution guide.
