2. Die-Specific Comments

As soon as you see the last A in CANADA you can positively ID this die.  There is no other die even close to the damage seen on this letter.  If the coin is not too worn look for a slightly re-punched 9 on reverse and a distinctive re-cut stem on leaf 9.  All in all a very collectible die pair.
