Question about possible Overton type on 1807 half

Bjorn

Hello all!

I am not particularly familiar with the Overton numbers and don't have the books on them. Can anyone help with a possible Overton number based on the following images?




I may be able to get a better image if needed. Thanks!

The picture is kind of vague, but I believe I see a small sharp die defect lump just left of the top of the first S which is a diagnostic for a Rev. B. If so,
I would believe this to be a 0-104, but this is most certainly not my field, so many more astute collectors may override me.
Nice coin.

I see an O-103 or possibly O103a due to the (like o-102) the serif of Y higher than T,
with the reverse showing "point of leaf below right half of base of I"
Possibly the O-103a due to some evidence (on reverse) of what appears to be a die crack from
"edge above F, across tip of right wing"....but hard to see if this "die crack" continues
through AMERICA to right claw...etc..etc..

Been awhile since I cracked my Overton Book

Thanks for the replies guys! That is indeed a die crack or chip below the 'F' on the reverse and extending into the wing... so, likely O-103a, although I'll have to check how far the crack goes the next time I have the coin in hand...
