Variety 76
Obverse 75 is identified by date placement at RE and date repunching
that features initial date impressions to the north above the flag of
the 1, to the south below the base of the 9 and to the north within the
lower loop and above the upper loop of the 6.
Reverse AAY develops the following die crack:
1. Die crack from the denticles at 8:30 upward through the left wreath.
Comments: Variety 76 was
initially identified by Russell Doughty, who discovered three examples
of this die pairing. The above plate coin was given to this
author by Russell and represents one of the three that he had
discovered.
During mid May 2018, David Killough submitted a fourth known example that is equivalent in die state to the above plate coin.
