The Liberty Bell was on display at the Centennial Exposition. The dates on both the obverse and reverse of this die variety have a pointed 6 and both of these dies are found paired with several other centennial dies. Engraved by William H. Key, assistant engraver to William Barber, 1864-1885; his signature is below Independence Hall. Both Frossard and Holland report these as being struck in copper, not bronze.
