[QUOTE="Marshall, post: 3179259, member: 21705"]Reverse F is distinctive as the smallest and fattest loops and most berries of the series. It was used on S-5, S-6, S-7 and NC-4. The leaves on Obverses 6 (S-5) and 7 (S-6) are very similar, so ususally you look at the significant difference in the size of the date, with Obv. 6 being much larger than Obvs. 7, 8 and 9. In this case, I looked at the leaf on the left (as well as the entire triplet) almost touching the hair on Obverse 7 as a diagnostic. On 6, it is more distant and the entire triplet is close to centered between the hair and the neck. Stem points to 7. Obverse 8 Stem points to 9 Obverse 9 has a different leaf structure with stems to the right. Note. When this Reverse is paired with Obverse 9, it is the NC-4 which is unique and in the ANS Museum. It is the only known variety missing from the collection Dan Holmes put together in 2009. A specially minted gold replica took it's place.[/QUOTE]
