The issue of March 1836 varies from Die Alignment II, with the eagle flying upward, to Die Alignment IV, with the eagle flying level. Both are after a medallic turn. These issues are now in some dispute. It was previously believed that the difference between DA II and IV was a gradual rotation of the reverse die. Recent research by John Dannreuther and Saul Teichman may indicate that the reverse die was removed and reinstalled numerous times, and the variation in obverse/reverse alignment varied according to when the die was reinstalled. <BR> This is a lightly handled example of this always-popular type coin. The fields do not show any noticeable reflectivity, and each side is covered with even gray patina with an undertone of golden-rose. There are no mentionable defects on either side.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
