Hello, are there multiple reverse designs for this? I am trying to purchase one but keep seeing a different reverse design and want to make sure I get an authentic one. Thank you in advance! I am so confused on this one.

It seems that way, I've found 7 different reverses (yours included, although I didn't find any other pictures exactly like yours) for the 1783 (strange, no pictures found for 1784). All the pictures are from renowned auction houses so I assume they are all authentic.
I think you need a more specialized catalog, in Krause there's no mentioning of any variety.

Thank you so much for your help! Should we have the page for this coin updated with all of the different varieties? Oddly enough, I also found this unique obverse. Any clue?

Oh wow! Again, thank you for your research! We should definitely get the page updated so others don’t get as confused as I did lol
