Comments

Weight varies between 6.5 - 7.1 grams.

Flag finial shapes vary. There are two basic forms: ’Ball and Spire’ and ‘Ball’. Ball and Spire finials are round at the bottom and come to a sharp point at the top. Some finials do not fit into these two categories.

Ball and Spire finial 1893/AH1310/VS1950

Ball finial 1893/AH1310/VS1950

Date variations also exist. One variation can be found on some coins dated 1893 / AH1310 / VS1950. There appears to be a colon ( : ) between the 9 and 3. In addition, a feature beneath the 3 suggests an 8, or a 3 in retrograde.
