Description

This is one of the more unusual trail dies that shows wide spread trail lines from numerous design elements. Using a PUP of the EPU, we can see lines from the tops of all the letters in that motto. The T and E of UNITED, the A, T and E of STATES, the F in the word OF and the AMERI of AMERICA all show the same directional lines. On the lower half of the die, the right corners of the stylobate, the F of the designer’s initials, the N and T of CENT and even the N and E of ONE have faint trails and distortion. Also showing the same directional lines are the tops of thee columns and the cornice. The offset direction for this die is 030 degrees.
