    it's type 2 hair group 6, but I am having trouble determining the variety of this coin.

    It's hard to see if there's any cracks in the pictures and using the Penny Whimsy I have no visuals to compare it to.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    I'm thinking VG10-F12(Details)

    What do you think a fair price to offer for this coin?

    I would peg that at VF details, personally. Can't help on the variety, though. Sorry!

    Wild guess from the images. If it has any problems we can't see and would get a details grade, $100 to $150. I'll guess $300+ if it will grade and looks good in hand.
    From what I see, I like the coin.

    My guess is s-184 but I can't tell for sure from the pics tough call if that one would grade clean or not without seeing in hand it could fair price raw 125-175 if it graded clean an easy $300+ coin I'd say f-15 possibly details I can't see how porous it is regardless its a nice coin!!

    Penny Whimsy shows an R-7 for the 184.

    Is that still true?

    no. i don't think that was ever true, probably a typo. S-184 is an R2-

    I was looking at 183. The 184 is right next to that on the right. I see it's an R-2 now. Thanks.

    Fairly common variety has the telltale die crack from the a toward the fraction and the spacing of liberty and the date right for 184 wish I could tell you it was an 183

    Got some better pics.

    The scans were awful compared to these. Think it'll grade?
