Coin #1 in Barry's study

The last of these known varieties has a Wide Date, and in this respect, it is very similar to the second listing of the Large "8" variation. However, in this instance, the final two numerals are Small "8's", similar to those used in the previously listed variations! Initially, this variety might appear to look like the Narrow Date, but the gaps between the last three digits are Wider and the final "8" is noticeably closer to the Ring of Beads, than it is with this former example. Finally, it should be noted that the last "8" of this variety does not exhibit any significant signs of having been Altered!
