So no comments on the reverse having to be a tripled die on a genuine 43/2? I read that the op's coin has a doubled reverse not tripled.

John, I have never read anything that has discussed the reverse of this variety. I do know in the CPG it discusses an obverse die with a slanted gouge inside the 3 that is often mistaken for this variety.

I won't be buying an SEM to take photos of coins. Here are the best I can take manipulating a lens and a 16x magnifier.

Here, again, is the doubled 1 and Y.

The image of the 3/2 looks correct. Nice find. Note how the end of the foot is outside the 3. That what you need to see along with the horizontal loupe on the 3.

Much better photos. It does start to appear now that what you have is legit. Congrats.
