1888 O VAM-1B what stage would you call this?

Having fun with the 1B that showed up today. I know that the field isnt tilted all the way following the die break but it does progress all the way from the dot to the bottom of the hairline.

From denticles to nose:

I'll see your bunny with a pancake on his head and raise you a Siamese cat with a miniature pumpkin on his head.

You wouldn't believe how long it took to get him to sit still for this.

    From your pix, my guess is stage 2....1B-H2

    You need a single image showing the whole area. From what I see, it is what Leroy would call VAM-1B1, just past the dot and no tilted field. You could figure out the Harrison stage but it looks like the common one anyway.
