Obverse 24 is identified by date placement at LH and date repunching that features two separate date impressions to the northwest within the lower loop of the 9 and two separate date impressions to the northwest within the 0.

Reverse X exhibits hair-like hub-throughs from the rim at 8:00 upward through the left wreath to the rim at 10:00.

Comments: Obverse 24 received two separate initial date impressions to the northwest, with the southernmost impressions slightly weaker compared to the northern impressions.

The Reverse X hub-throughs are evident within the field as well through the devices of the wreath and appear to be hair fibers that were caught between the working hub and working die during the hubbing of Reverse X.
