Even if it's just a plain old 1819, I at least filled one of many holes.

I lean away from 9/8, but it sure looks funky there.

Look for strong recutting on the second star (the point aiming at 12:00, and the one facing 9:30), and slightly weaker recutting on the fourth (two points most directly facing the rim).

Yes it is the overdate N-1. The point of leaf is below the center of the second S in STATES. The only other variety that comes close to that is N-6. On it the Point of leaf is slightly past center, but on N-6 the point of leaf below the F in OF is below the center of the upright. On this coin, and N-1, it is below the left foot of the F.

Thank-you very much Conder.

Here is the reverse with, as you said, the leaf points below the center of the last S and below the left foot of the F.

A bit difficult to see since my scanner apparently doesn't like well worn coins. It was tough to get enough contrast.
