Reverse AA Die Crack Mapping

Type I Obverse 14 is identified by date placement at LE and date repunching that features initial date impressions to the south within the lower loop of the second 8 and within both loops of the 6.

Reverse AA has acquired a clash mark through (C)ENT and has developed the following die cracks:
1. Die crack from the denticles at 12:45 extends into the upper right side of the shield.
2. Die crack segment located among the lower oak leaves of the right wreath.

Comments: Type I Variety 10 was first identified by David Killough, who submitted the above plate coin during early July 2022 for inclusion in this book based on the date repunching of Type I Obverse 14.
