1871 Reverse PA features several minor die markers. A tiny die line extends from the left wing toward the notch between the upper two leaves (note that the upper line on the photo is a die polish line on the coin pictured, NOT a die marker). A short circular die line is visible near the top of the scroll right of the E in WE. Scribe lines are visible under the denticles above ED and above ST. These are shown on the following photos.  1871 Reverse PA die line from left wing  1871 Reverse PA die line in scroll  1871 Reverse PA scribe lines
