Welcome Josie, there are in fact six varieties of the 1908 penny, 2 different reverses which can be told apart by the position of the E in penny. The the vertical strock of he E either aligns with a tooth or a gap between teeth, coupled with this are 3 obverse. These are I of IND to tooth, I of IMP to tooth. I of IND to tooth, I of IMP to gap and finally I of IND to gap, : after BRITT to tooth.
