You've got the word "vine" confused. The vine is the large, thick line that snakes around between the beads and the denticles and has stems that attach the leaves. Only the first 2 dies Maybe 3) had full stems. The rest all had a vine break at 13, then one showed at 7 and, finally at 2. The photos are not clear but I think you have a broke vine at 13 and maybe at 7 .... and it looks like you have a broken stem at 9 (it appears to be a little short to connect to the leaf). The VINE is the large part sweeping though 360 degrees and the stem is what connects the vine to the leaf. What you have is fairly common for an 1858.

The photos aren't clear enough to ID which Reverse that you actually have with Turner numbers and percent of dies used. Do you have any die cracks on the Reverse? Can't see any on the Reverse. There were nearly 50 reverse dies used and Turner has ID'd them all, but hard to tell yours from the photos/plastics/tabs.

Read the suggestions that I posted and I asked for some more info on die cracks to be seen on the Reverse. We are trying to help
