Good Very Fine. A rare reverse die with the head of Aeternitas possibly as an animal's head.

Ex Emporium Hamburg, e-Auction 532, 18 August 2017, lot160.
Curiously, it has been noted that the head of Aeternitas on this reverse die is morphed, with the nose and chin elongated, so that it resembles an animal rather than a human.
