| Reverse description | The reverse is entirely blank, presenting a flat, unworked planchet surface with no design, legend, or relief elements. The field shows tool marks, surface scratches, and a notable depression or flaw near the center, consistent with a raw planchet used solely to test the obverse die. This uniface trial striking confirms the piece was produced as an obverse die trial, with no reverse die applied during minting. |
