How to recognise it

Only the left and right edges are yellow on top. Headlights on the right; the left corners' yellow faces front and back.

Its inverse is another case

Do the 51 algorithm backwards, F R U R' U' R U R' U' F', and you are solving 48.

That's why CubeDojo never scrambles 51 that way: it builds a random state with the case fixed, so you practise 51 and not 48.
