2. Die-Specific Comments

One of five known "Bridge Dies" which struck both 1859/8 and Narrow 9 cents. This die was used first on 1859/8 Cents, then with the E12 and E12a narrow 9 reverses.  Turner calls this die OJ1 in his books.

Look for die cud in V portion of the N in REGINA this is not unique to this die but is also not common.
