    I do not have one but the 1800/1798 die marriages are all fairly similar and the NC-6 is known for having the berry attach ABOVE the leaves that are above "E" in "ONE while the other 3 die marriages have that outer berry attach below where those leaves meet the steam but if that was not visible what other means would one do to attribute that super rarity?

    I'm away from my reference books but I believe it's reverse X. The "F" in "OF" is double punched except for the top I believe. Good luck.

    You might try looking at the bottom berry just to the left of the bow. On S-191 and NC-5 the stem is sharply angled to the left, on S-190 it is just slightly angled and on NC-6 it is vertical. NC-5 also has a short fraction bar compared to the other three, and all three known specimens have a heavy cud over AME. S-191 usually shows a die break a swelling through the fraction.

    I sent a PM to Condor but either something wrong with PM or he no longer replies to them.

    I was asked about the NC-6 by a collector and I know why.

    Is this reverse (only picture he would send) an NC-6?

    I know my opinion means little but I'm thinking NC-6. The lowest left berry is vertical, the "F" in "OF" is double punched on the lower area and the first outer berry on left is stemless. I would love to see the obverse but reverse X was only used on the NC-6. Very nice reverse, hope the obverse is too.

    Of course you need to wait on Conder. These 1800's are so difficult for me.
