This type has two variations on the reverse:
• Coins minted in 1841 and 1842 in Berlin and Düsseldorf have a wider, higher crown touching the scroll and almost the legend.
• From 1843 onwards, the crown is narrower and lower.
SCWC and NGC are not reliable sources for this type. They differentiate these two types by the references KM#436.1 (wide crown) and KM#436.2 (narrow crown). However, they mistakenly mention wide-crown types for the years 1843-1845 D.
The 1851 A vintage mentioned by the SCWC does not exist (see commentary in the Olding).
