Class 3 - Design Hub Doubling
Class 3 (design hub doubling). This die was hubbed from two different design hubs. CopperCoins lists it under the design variety shown above — the design variety named first when collectors describe the coin (for example, “small over large” → Small Date). See the nine classes article for how Class 3 differs from a normal doubled die.

Die Notes
A light spread on ITE of UNITED, STA of STATES, F of OF, and ME of AMERICA. This doubled die is on the VDB style reverse. NOTE: Subsequent evaluation and discussion shows that there is a real possibility that many dies could exist with very similar doubling which could be attributed to working hub or master die doubling.
