Obverse Die 25

 

Primary Characteristics

Obverse die 25 appears in two VAMs and is paired with reverse die o in both cases.  In the case of die 25 the first 8 and last one are doubled.

 

The first 8 is slightly doubled on the right outside of the lower loop.  The second 1 is slightly doubled at the top and the lower left of the vertical shaft.

 

The ear is slightly doubled at bottom of earlobe.  This die is distinguished from others with doubled earlobes by the date doubling.
