[QUOTE="Marshall, post: 3185761, member: 21705"]S-192 R3 Obverse 2 is an overdate with a heavy 9 showing in the 1st 0 and the second 0 even with the other digits. The tops of both points of 7 show at the top of 8 and to the right side of 8. HWH left of upright of R, SHWH under the upright of E. Reverse C has a diagnostic crack from the rim below the space between the ribbon and the 1 in the denominator through the top of 1, the middle of the fraction bar, the ribbon just above the bend, the end of the right stem, bottom of C, middle of I to the rim just left of I. A second crack develops through R in later die stages/states. Yours appears to be a terminal Die State, perhaps beyond those known. The die is sinking above the cracks leaving the portion below the crack protected. I've seen this sinking between the two cracks (which itself is beyond the terminal die state in published works), but never left of them as yours does. In fact, I might have seen this earlier this year and it may have been in a prior post in this thread.[/QUOTE]
