    I think he was asking about the die variety of the coin

    Not sure on die variety the first is a holy half worth silver melt second I'd call vg possibly details due to the scrapes not sure how sever they are in hand the first 2 were nicer but as a whole you got some nice halts and you can never go wrong with multiple nice busts ;)

    1831 looks like an o-116. M above right base of A left side of shield looks like a broad double line. Star 8 1 mm from cap and s13 1/2 mm from curl.

    I can't get a read on the 1836 - seems like not everything wants to line up for me.

    The 1836 is a pain to Overton.

    Possibly the O-122.

    stem & C align, as well as the I T relationship.

    Plus the 6 is higher than the 183.

    R-2

    RLM: You ask: No one know Overton numbers any more?

    Sure, but esp for some dates it takes a lot of time.

    Hey Frank if I blow it up it looks like the left side of I lines up with the right side of the T. Or that is how it looks to me - maybe my eyes need adjusting.

    agreed, and that is how it is listed in Peterson's and, possibly, in Overton.

    In my 4th edition by Parsley for the 122 it says I is centered under right side of T. So that is why I skipped 122. But if I use a magnifying glass on the picture it sure looks like left side of I lines up with right side of T. So I guess the overton book could be wrong.
