Q1: Is this an L? I think I see the pointed bust, but I am biased.
Q2. RPD? and Snow #? I see it in the lower loop of the 8, and have no clue what is going on under the 1.

I got it for the 180 degrees rotated dies. I know it is damaged on the reverse and in otherwise low condition.

thanks!

PS, sorry for the blurry pic of the obverse.

I am pretty sure that this is an 'L', variety primarily because there are no similar 'no L' varieties that matches your coin.

However, due to the wear on your coin, it is difficult to determine what 'L' variety. There are 3 varieties that have bold repunching on the '1' similar to your coin. They also have repunching on the '8' and '6' which I believe is partially visible on you coin. These varieties are S1, S2 and S7.

My best guess is that your coin is an S2 because the date position is closer to the bust point than S1 or S7. I hope this helps.

The RPD suggests that much. Due to the wear, I'm not certain about the variety either. But it's a nice RPD!
