Here is a nice and unusual 360 degree die break on an 25c 1872 H coin:

It can be seen going around the coin following the outer edge of the leaves of the wreath. It also intersects the H.

That is pretty cool! Now I'm curious about the obverse, as there were several interesting varieties for that year.

Just an Obverse 2. So far I am only aware of one Obverse 1 that has been found for the 1872 25c piece. The 2 though is the the Small Two with Tail. There is a Small 2 with No Tail, and a Large Two.
