1901 Variety 9
Obverse 15 is identified by repunchng to the south on the last 1, with
date placement of LH. In addition, a misplaced digit is located
in the denticles below and to the left of the primary 0 of the date.
Obverse 15 exhibits moderately heavy die flow lines and a die
chip at the tip of the eighth feather.
Reverse
O is in a smilar die state as obverse 15 with the development of moderately heavy die flow lines.
Comments: The misplaced
digit of obverse 15, which may be seen more clearly during an earlier
die state of obverse 15, is most likely a 0 digit.
The die state
of variety 9 seems to suggest a high cent production. Thus,
examples of variety 9 may be found with some searching.
Plate coin:
Richard Ashton, PCGS MS63RB (Snow 9 Plate Coin)
