The violet arrows shown below are marks of interest that at this time have not been confirmed reliable or constant. Neinken plating diagrams indicate that this position has no plating marks.

FIGURE 1. (Below) The blue arrows point out a faint blurry horizontal line extending to the remains of the right plume. The violet arrows to the right indicate a sharp horizontal line. This feature can be seen in another impression here. The
violet arrows pointing to the blurs under the "E" of CENT can be an aid to plating. Similar marks like these can be found on ther positions.
