Obverse diagonal die crack from field left of R across R at bottom right serif across top of hair bun below T and then looping down into field toward Y disappearing into die file lines. Another die crack left center of hair bun runs down right diagonally out into field below Y. which intersects vertical die crack from rim above Y down through tip of lowest hair strand and down through V then R looping left towards 3.

Heavy die polish lines from R T Y down right side through TRVST which partially diminish die cracks described above.

Obverse diagonal die crack (left to right) from rim left of base of 1 across 1 up across tip of neck bust and across left top of T.

Long fine die crack through rays from top of third long ray across to below E.

Reverse die pitting at bottom includes rock, PEACE, and mountains.
