[QUOTE="Marshall, post: 967291, member: 21705"]This is a nice planchet and easily identifiable as Obverse 32. Unfortunately, that obverse die was used with 3 reverses. 1. Reverse GG (No Fraction Bar) on the S-64 R5-. 2. Reverse HH (Single Berry between D S) on the S-65 R1. Statistically, the most likely. 3. Reverse LL (2 Berries between D S) on the NC-6 R8-. Ths die buckles and could explain the missing reverse detail, but I can't verify either a late die state on the Obverse or any detail on the reverse to attribute it. The edge appears to be the Edge of 1795. Let me call it the distant L Edge until I verify which is which. It matches the second of my S65s. Upon further review, I'm changing my mind on the Edge. The bottoms are too worn for accurate assessment on the spacing of the bottom of the Ls, but the tops of the L L and A are evenly spaced on the Edge of 95 and the Ls are closer and the A distant on the Edge of 94.[/QUOTE]
