- In Type II the entire design is lighter. The base and bottom portion of the column standing at the right has been removed along with the rightmost stone from the group of 4 stones lying between the two columns. The middle 2 stones blend together so it looks like only 2 stones between the 2 columns rather than 4 stones as in Type I. Type I is the original 1927 engraving and Type II is the 1935 re-engraving.
