Obverse Description
Broken 3 leans right OBV. 1. S1B, S7UE-UEHb, S8UE, S13LE. Center dot on neck. Date is 8 ½ mm. with a high 3 that appears broken in the center, with the upper and lower halves barely joined at an unnatural angle. This 3 also leans to the right, the only 1823 variety found that does, All other 1823's have threes that are upright or lean to the left. Also the three has a tight upper curl with a square end and the top seems too large for the bottom, which is rather flat and open.
Reverse Description
Two lower arrowheads joined to shafts above REV. A. A1UE, A2UH, A3LH. 50 C. is 2 mm. and 50 leans to the left. A-A is ½ mm. Right sides of D-E are in line. Two lower arrowheads are close and attached to shafts above. (66,66,65,65,64) R.3
