[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 1974674, member: 66"]You have to identify it from the reverse. Assuming you want to be able to identify it without seeing if it has stars..... On S-49 the right hand leaves just above ONE reach about a third of the way over the N. (late die stages have a heavy crack running from the rim down through the upright of the E into the head.) If the end of those leaves don't extend past the E, look at the point of leaf below the M. If it doesn't reach the center of the M it is NC-9. (two of the three known specimens have a bisecting crack from 6 to 12 o'clock.) Next look at the wreath stems. On S-47 they are short with the left hand one pointing almost at the bottom of the U, and the right hand one pointing at the right base of the A. On S-48 the are long with the left one pointing close to the top of the U, and the right one ending even with the right foot of the A.[/QUOTE]
