<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Marshall, post: 3000648, member: 21705&quot;]Another scuzzy pickup of a common variety S-241. But I think this might be a new later die state VI:</p><p><br /></p><p>SUBJECT Obverse</p><p>[ATTACH=full]742448[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>COMPARISON V Obverse from Heritage Archives</p><p>[ATTACH=full]742446[/ATTACH]</p><p>Nothing much to see on the obverse, but it&#039;s consistent with the attribution.</p><p><br /></p><p>SUBJECT Reverse [ATTACH=full]742450[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>COMPARISON V from Heritage Archives</p><p>[ATTACH=full]742451[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Both CUDs at (O)F and to the right and the one over TATE are evident.</p><p><br /></p><p>It appears the reverse was double struck about three quarters of a letter height lower than the initial strike mostly evident above the second STATES OF.</p><p><br /></p><p>The reason I believe it may be a new die state is the apparent CUD which has formed from the top right leaf past the bottom of the Ghost S to just right of the Top serif of (E)S where it forks back to the rim above that serif.
