Comments:
   This is the second and final use of Obverse P1 and the only use of Reverse 1865 PA in the 1865.
Reverse 1865 PA was later used to strike proof restrikes of 1851 and 1852.

Obverse P1
Obverse P1 features minor die doubling that’s most visible on the lower hem of Miss Liberty’s gown.
This makes this die rather easy to identify. The following photo shows the attribution grid with
the arrows pointing to the doubling on the gown hem.

Reverse 1865 PA
Reverse 1865 PA also exhibits very minor die doubling, visible as a widening of the top of the
letters UNI. This is shown in the following photo.

No later die states have been observed. We’ve included this die marriage, which displays notable die doubling on both
the obverse and the reverse dies, in our list of our Top-30 Seated Dollar varieties.
