    Since there no images to be found for any RPD(s) . I had to take a image facing East to West and some facing North to South . There are also 2 CherryPicker ( RPD ) too . I know it has the very scarce type II Reverse too ..

    Here's some info on the type I and type II Reverse ..

    Comments: In the above images, I have listed four obvious differences between the Type I and Type II reverse hubs. The most common two diagnostic methods are the distant between the E in ONE to the wheat grains and the different styles of the left ribbon end. On Type I reverse hub, the E in ONE is very closed to the wheat grains and the left ribbon end has two points. For Type II reverse hub, the opposite is true where the E in ONE is further away from the wheat grains and the left ribbon end has a single point. In addition, the height of the D in DIME with respect to a maple leaf point is also a good diagnostic as is the position of the E in DIME referenced to the oak leaf point directly below the letter. It becomes a matter of personal preference as to which diagnostic method a collector uses to differentiate the two reverse hub styles.


    Here's what NGC says about the type II Reverse .

    The left ribbon end is not split and ends in a single point.

    This variety is very scarce for 1876-S dimes.
