Obverse 12 is identified by repunching to the south on the 90, repunching to the north on the last 1 and date placement of RE.  Die polishing lines are visible on the neck and from LIBERTY into the hair. Obverse 12 is observed with die flow lines and the beginning of a die break at the tip of the eighth feather.
