Yes, the 1817 is the O-113a. As for the 1827? I wish it was the 149, but it is the prime die state of the 120--a solid R-5 on its own.
Oldbustchaser Anything special about these? Besides crappy pictures Both were in BLANCHARD flips. 1834 1829
1834 is Small Date, Small Letter. O-117. R-2 1929 is O-115 R-1 Both are common die marriages, but appear to be reasonably nice examples for a raw VF collection. Edit to add... Although I AM an old bustchaser, I am actually the Okbustchaser.
Thanks, my Bad. It was almost the bewitching hour and past my bedtime. Looks like it's too late to edit. I can attribute that to old eyes on a phone and insomnia. When do you graduate to Greatbustchaser? That 1929 would be easier for me to distinguish.
Just got this in the mail. It's a Circa 1795 British Conder Anti-slavery token, D+H 1037. Compared to others that I've seen it is a detailed and strong strike. It is pedigreed to Eric P. Newman and came with his envelope as well as a tag from Baldwin's auction house in London England. The word oppression is misspelled as it's missing a "P."
Didn’t expect to buy anything other than maybe a bullion coin but I couldn’t resist this for the price. What would be your number on this that you couldn’t resist?
Got by a shop I hadn’t been to in a while and picked up this oddball. Grades seem to be accurate or possibly conservative. My pics through the plastic aren’t great.
