[QUOTE="robec, post: 4330398, member: 19094"]If, and that is a big if, the coin was a 1909 MPL struck from Obv Die #2 and Rev Die #2, it would not be designated Type 2. Just like any other coin that uses several die marriages aren't labeled Type 2, 3 or 50.

Long die scratch from the bust up through the 19 of the date into the field in front of the chin. Die scratch from the top of the 1 up through the field in front of the chin. Small die scratch from the bottom of the nose. Approximately 20 vertical die scratches to the far right of the nose. Located on the horizontal plane between the tip of the nose and eyebrow and on the vertical plane below the ST of TRUST. 1909 Reverse #2: Paired with 1909 Obverse #2 Cross Reference: None Die scratch from M of UNUM left into the field above E of ONE.
