<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Marshall, post: 3117539, member: 21705&quot;]Obverse 3 can be confirmed with the die break from the middle of the upper part of the 8 left though the 1 and left to the first denticle tip left of the 1.</p><p><br /></p><p>While I can&#039;t positively identify the reverse as Reverse C, I see nothing to rule it out either.</p><p><br /></p><p>This leaves it as N-3, in a later die state/stage.</p><p><br /></p><p>Of course, this is just my opinion.

I&#039;m comparing it to the date close-up in Noyes which is described as State A/B and also shows the remnants of 8 1.</p><p><br /></p><p>This would not make sense if it were a crack, but would if it were flow lines or polishing marks.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
