Soho Mint – Pice – Reverse Varieties

 

Pivot

The shape of the pivot varies. One specimen has no pivot.

Dots

There may be three tiny dots: one immediately below the pivot, one next to the top of the last Arabic letter, and the third between the first two chains of the left pan. The one below the pivot is probably an engraving remnant and the others die flaws.

Hanging Loop

There may be just one loop at the top of the scales, or this may be linked to another. Single loops may be round or flattened.
