This example is a later die state of obverse 2 displayed above at HBCC-3086. Note the die crack through the digit 0, continuing across the bust of Liberty, eventually reaching the border between LI. The reverse also has a die crack from the right wing to E of AMERICA. This crack was earlier described at HBCC-3085. Walter Breen noted that this 2-E variety is “probably the least rare 1804.”
