Pierwsza odmiana, nie ma ponownego wycięcia w obszarze klatki piersiowej lwa. Bardzo wyraźne detale zarówno na awersie, jak i rewersie. Legendy awersu znajdują się 2,5 mm od krawędzi. Ta odmiana jest rzadka.

Druga odmiana ma częściowe wycięcie w środkowej części piersi lwa. Bardzo wyraźne legendy i detale tylko na awersie. Legendy na awersie znajdują się 2 mm od krawędzi. Ta odmiana jest rzadka.

Trzecia odmiana ma pełne wycięcie od lewej do prawej końcowej części piersi lwa. Cienkie i słabe legendy i detale zarówno na awersie, jak i rewersie. Legendy na awersie znajdują się w odległości 1,00 mm od krawędzi. Ta odmiana jest bardzo powszechna.

Czwarta odm iana ma pełne wycięcie od lewej do prawej części obszaru piersi lwa, ale wycięcie jest zupełnie inne niż w trzeciej odmianie. Cienkie i słabe legendy i detale zarówno na awersie, jak i rewersie. Legendy na awersie znajdują się 0,80 mm od krawędzi. Ta odmiana jest również bardzo powszechna.

Dla porównania, wszystkie 4 awersy zostały przedstawione na jednym zdjęciu.

Third variety, there is a full recut on the left to right end portion of the Lion's chest area. Thin and weak legends and details on both the obverse and reverse sides. Obverse legends are 1.00 mm from the rims. This variety is very common.
