<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 630756, member: 66"]Because the first was made with the small head which was only used in 1834 and the second die was made with the large head which was used for part of 1834 AND ALL OF 1835. So they were all made from two distinct obverse dies made from two different hubs (small head hub, and large head hub. And you could call the large head the head of 1835.) Remember these dies were made using a central design punch and the the letters were added by hand. The small head punch was only used in 1834 and the large head punch for 34, 35, 36 etc.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
