Been looking for an affordable version of this one for awhile. I thought $20.50 before shipping sounded like a deal. https://www.ebay.com/itm/1831-Large...=true&nordt=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557
your ditto replies are meaningless. you don't even say if you feel this coin is what I think it is. die crack leading to large cud is a variety but its also an error in how coin was minted IMO.
I had to type something because it wouldn't let me delete the second post. The first didn't show up until I posted the second. DITTO!
If they issued thousands with the same cracked die, it is a variety. I'm sure it has a Newcomb number.
Ordinarily, I don't do links, either, but a link to an eBay listing seems rather harmless. So, I took a look. ~ Chris
Thanks for the photos. In my opinion $20 it's top book. I'd be willing to hold out and pay a little more for a better looking coin.
Here's one that looks like the die stage you have with a Grellman card.https://www.ebay.com/itm/1831-N-12-...noa=1&pg=2047675&_trksid=p2047675.c100623.m-1
In that case I save my money so I can get it. I've purchased numerous coins by saving my money and buying that one hard to get expensive coin.
