  I don't know for sure but I'm guessing that if it's the 15th variety to be recognized from 1875, it has to be pretty subtle w/o much premium.

  Not sure that works. A snow 16 (dot on the n of the reverse) is big bucks.

  The Snow-16 is big bucks because a certain numismatic writer put it in the Redbook.

  The S15 has very heavy die file marks on the shallow areas of the portrait. I give it a 1-star rating which means it may or may not get a premium. However at the Wichita presentation this weekend J. Cline passed around a similar severe die file marked Standing Liberty Quarter which he thought was worth a huge premium, so I could be wrong and someone may pay big bucks for it.

  There are several dates in the Indian cent series that have heavy die file marks (1862 S-10, 1864 Copper Nickel S-5), and while I think they're very interesting and really like having something unique like this on coins in my own collection, I agree with Rick that I don't think they add much value to the coin. However, circular die polishing lines like those on the 1864 Bronze S-11 bring a nice premium. Here are a couple examples:
