GTG and GR# on This Reedy Half!

All you had to do was ask The GR number (Graham-Reiver) is like the Overton number for the lettered edge varieties.

I've been told the book itself is quite rare now, and hard to find.

End result... NGC called it AU-58. Several of you got it, so congrats!

 

Pic of the slab?

 

I don't have a pic of the slab.

You have to just trust me.

 

I guessed AU55 before I read the reveal. The hairlines look irregular enough to not be attributed to a cleaning, but distracting enough to knock it down a grade.

 

So what's not to trust? I just thought maybe the attribution was upon it.....

 

Oh, no, it isn't.

 

Nice coin!. I make it GR-13 (Obverse 10 and Reverse K) and later die state. Reverse K was also used later with Obverse 11 to make GR-14.

 

I don’t know. 55 maybe

 

Glad too hear that

 

Hey Physics, do you know if it’s available online or if it can be bought as ebook/PDF?

thanks,
Mike

 

I've never seen it offered as a PDF.

The dealer David Kahn was selling these (he works a lot with Dick Graham). He might have more info, or be able to point you in the right direction?

I know you can find these sometimes at used coin-book-sellers, but I haven't really looked recently.

Devilishly hard to lay a hand upon.........glad I got my copy back in the day.

 

Thanks, I found this, too, but it says "out-of-stock".

 

I know......it's absolutely no where to be found.
