Description
=1878-P VAM-128 Die Scratch Thru RT= 128 II 2 B2a (Die Scratch Thru RT) (179) Obverse II 2 - Heavy diagonal die scratch thru R and top of T in LIBERTY. (Same obverse used with VAM 194 and VAM 211) DPIS – In 1878 dates were part of the master die so there is no variation in position. ;Emission Sequence :Obverse: :Reverse: Comments: # Former 1878-P VAM-131B. # The typically encountered VAM 128 shows fairly extensive reverse die cracking especially at TED-wing-S; however, the cracking does not displace the field so it does not warrant classification as a sub-variety per LVA. EDS specimens do exist for the variety with one attributed by ANACS as VAM-131B EDS AU 55. The EDS coin does not exhibit the reverse die cracking and the coin has reflective surfaces on both sides. # This obverse shared with 1878-P VAM-194 and 1878-P VAM-211
