It is the Large Narrow date but beyond that I cannot attribute its variety. One clue is a double die break found on the reverse. The largest is through STATES to OF and the smaller one is above that visible above the TES in STATES. Any guess on the N#? Thank you! Report this Post to the Staff

flyank Valued Member United States 77 Posts	Posted 06/11/2017 7:59 pm Interesting...I never considered these to be corrosion artifacts. Is there a way to differentiate between those and die cracks as they have extremely similar characteristics? Thanks for furthering our education on this. Report this Post to the Staff
