razorblaydejr Valued Member United States 278 Posts	Posted 05/06/2015 9:46 pm Just picked up this IHC and was inspecting under glass and I see this leg sticking out on the SE side of the 8. Does anyone know if this is a variety? If so, which one? Thanks. Report this Post to the Staff

MeadowviewCollector Pillar of the Community United States 4409 Posts	Posted 05/07/2015 12:01 am I'm not 100% sure if I'm right but this looks to be S-5b From Snow's 3rd edition (pg. 308) Quote: Die stage B: A die crack connects the base of the date to the rim. Die crack from the rim at 2:00 through the tops of AM in AMERICA. Rev. G: There is a rough area in the field between the shield and the wreath tips. Die stage B: Die crack from rim at 2:00 to wreath. Die crack from top of shield through the right wreath. Die crack in wreath 10:00 to 11:00. Here's an example of S-5b on Rick's site to compare yours with http://www.indiancent.com/index.php....VUrhc_nBzGc Edited by MeadowviewCollector 05/07/2015 12:07 am Report this Post to the Staff
Waxemm Valued Member United States 450 Posts	Posted 05/07/2015 09:49 am I don't think it's the S-5b I am not seeing the obvious repunching on the 1. Can you get a better pick of the area in question. Report this Post to the Staff

Close up of the '1' also. There should be strong repunching under the flag and base of the '1'. Report this Post to the Staff
