Both the obverse and reverse dies are only used on N-10.</p><p><br /></p><p>So why isn&#039;t this listed in the red book? It&#039;s a scarcer variety but it should be listed like the other three, shouldn&#039;t it? Even though it&#039;s scarcer you can still find it unattributed on Ebay pretty easily.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
