Comments:
Date placement is B. Misplaced 8 digit may be seen the two
primary 8 digits of the date. Die Stage B is observed with a die
crack from 2:30 extending above the tops of AMERICA.
The
reverse shield point appear to be connected to the denticles and the
olive leaf is away on the above example, whereas the shield points are
away from the denticles and the olive leaf is connected according to
Rick Snows attribution book. The above example may indeed be a
new die marriage with the Snow 5 obverse. Die stage B is observed with a light die crack from 11:30 extending into the
shield and a moderately heavy one from 1:00 extending into the righ wreath.
