Obverse 32 is identified by date placement at RH and date repunching that features initial date impressions to the south below the base of the 1 and 9. Obverse 32 is observed with die lines below the ear. Obverse 32 has acquired a clash mark in front of the eye of Miss Liberty from a clashing event with Reverse AF and has developed a small die break atop the eighth feather.

Reverse AF is rotated 8 degrees clockwise and has acquired a clash mark through (C)ENT from a clashing event with obverse 32.
