<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Marshall, post: 3014720, member: 21705&quot;]I&#039;m now in search of any photographic examples of Die States I or II as described in Breen without the crumbling N. None are in the Heritage Archives.</p><p><br /></p><p>&quot;Die States: I. Obverse has blurred double clash marks. Reverse as in 5 <i>(S-227)</i> State I. The F AMER crack is shorter and feinter. <span style="color: #ff0000"><b>No crumbling is visible on N(T).</b></span> Dies misaligned with the weak areas at end of drapery and OF (corrected in later states). Rare. Clapp called it &quot;Newcomb 4 Bb.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>II. Feint crack joins tops of LI, later LIB. Reverse as number 5 <i>(S-227)</i> State II; the crack extends through F AMERIC. &quot;Newcomb 4-Bc.&quot; Rare.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>note - Crumbling on S-227 occur in Die State III so it would infer that there would be no crumbling on the N(T) on S-229 State II either.</p><p><br /></p><p>None of the coins in the condition census has been identified as either Die State I or II.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
