<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 3535334, member: 66"]As soon as I looked at the reverse I saw the "drooping" berry left and above the O in ONE. 1798 S-187 is the only rev from this hub that has that. (about half of the 1798's and all the 99's and 1800's used the same reverse hub, but they didn't have enough power to bring it up completely and the often had to add the berries and/or stems by hand. S-187 is the only one that has the berry going down like that.</p><p><br /></p><p>Once I saw that I saw on the obverse the arc die crack from the rim through T the base of Y and finally to the rim around 3:00.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
