A die scratch runs SE from the lower right N of UNUM to the roof of the Memorial below the M of UNUM. A short die scratch runs NW to SE to the right of the statue’s head. Reverse Stage B: The doubling has a “mushy” appearance. All Stage A markers have been abraded away. A small die chip can be found at the top of the 11th Memorial column. A die crack runs down the edge of the right cornice and down the 12th column. Obverse Stage A
