[QUOTE="Marshall, post: 3182554, member: 21705"]I can identify the obverse as 14 from the positions of the date and the HWH (Highest Wave of Hair) and SHWH (Second Highest Wave of Hair) under R and E rather than between them. Obverse 2 is close, but the reverse is just good enough to eliminate the Reverse of 96s. I also hate the Reverse of 96 terminology since it is actually a Reverse of 95. But tradition dictates 96. Obverse 14 was used on S-136 R3- and S-137 R2. While the reverse can be identified as a reverse of 97 from the shape of the loops, the Reverse is too far gone because it doesn't look like either reverse which is paired up with Obverse 14. In fact, with a distant A (or what I think might be the A) well away from the ribbon on the right side, the right stem pointing to the right leg of A (toward the fraction) and what appears to be the left leg of the N pointing to the gap between the loops, it looks more like Reverse C which was used on the NC-2. This makes me question what I think I'm seeing, so for me, unattributable.[/QUOTE]
