<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Marshall, post: 3178503, member: 21705&quot;]This is 1794 Obverse 2, a head of 93, and is distinguished from Obverses 1 and 3 by the evenly curved date. 1 and 3 each have middle digits higher than the end digits of the date. Confirmed by hair lengths, 2 short on top, a gap, then a singular long lock. another gap, three shorter locks and them the lowest lock. The 94s were not made with a punch which could impart hair detail. so the hair becomes a good diagnostic.</p><p><br /></p><p>The reverse is Reverse B with the stems very close to the ribbons.</p><p><br /></p><p>Reverse A has a longer outer leaf under (S)T, while Reverse B has a longer inner leaf. Both are under the upright of (S)T.</p><p><br /></p><p>While the position of the stems to the ribbons is sufficient for ID, locations of the leaf tips and berries relative to letters of the legend and ONE CENT match as do the positions of the letters in the legend to the dentils.</p><p><br /></p><p>The 2B is S-19 and comes in 2 subvarieties. The S-19a with the edge of 93{leaf down} (R5+) and S-19b with the edge of 94 (leaf up}(R4).</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]818538[/ATTACH]</p><p>Edge of 93</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]818539[/ATTACH]</p><p>Edge of 94</p><p><br /></p><p>If you look carefully, you can see that the lettering is slightly different as well as the orientation of the leaf.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
