1840 Date varieties
I have noticed three minor variations to the 1840 date. I have used the 1840 A pictures as possibly the norm. 1840 A - The 18 & 40 are in a straight baseline alignment. 1840 B - The 40 is below the baseline alignment and the 0 is over an 0 A bit shows on the inside right edge. 1840 C - The '40' are out of alignment with the '18'. The 4 & 0 are lower. The 0 is lower and tilts slightly backwards. Notice the alignment with the wreath leaf to the left of the 0. On 1840 A the 0 is aligned between two leaves. The '4' is slightly higher than the '0' but still just below the alignment of the 4 of the norm. The '4' also tilts backwards - very slightly.
