Recently got this coin for type and it's great overdate, Can any of you overton experts tell me if it is
101
101a
102
103a,b,c
I am pretty sure overton 103 is the rare one with the clear(er) 5/4 and 3 different die states of the OBV shattered die so is the 102 a different Rev? what is the A die state for 101? what are the pick up points? Thanks in advance

Is the 1 in the date recut? I can't tell from the images. I'm guessing no and that this is a 105 (or a 105a, which is a die state deterioration).
It's pretty clear it's a reverse D. The obverse is likely a 3.
If the 1 was recut to make the long serif a blunt one then it is a 117 which is the same reverse die but obverse 11.
The two obverses are quite close.
I reoriented your images (attributing is tough enough when the coin is upright) and tried to get a little clarity by modifying the color and exposure. I'm sure it's much lovelier in hand. Sorry if I butchered it.
