Hi, I am really stumped on this one. Below are pictures of my 1839 Coronet large cent, but I can't figure out if it's a) Coronet Head of 1838, b) Silly Head, c) Booby Head or d) 9/6. Here is what I have been able discern (as far as I can tell)... 1) The shoulder tip does not extend beyond the back of the head/hair. 2) The "T" in "Liberty" clearly does not come in contact with the hair. 3) There doesn't appear to be a line under CENT on the reverse, but under super high magnification and if I squint a little I might be able to convince myself that there is a wisp of a line there although it's not as long as I would expect. 4) The last digit of the date is a 9 but if I squint a little, I might convince myself that it's an extremely worn 9/6. 5) Because of the wear, I don't see any design on the rim. 6) Because of the wear, I don't see any beaded cords, but only some places where they may have been but even then, it doesn't look right to me. Would anyone hazard a guess as to what this is? Many thanks!!!!
Too worn in my opinion to tell by theses Pix. Here's the tools.... 1839 Coronet Liberty Head Large Cent All Varieties Matron Early Copper Penny Coin Value Prices, Photos & Info
Thank you @SensibleSal66 and @Timewarp . I appreciate you teaching me how to fish. I looked at all the varieties using the comparison tool and then looked at various grades (G, VG, F, etc.) of the 1839 with head of a 1838 on another site to see how it wears. I can now just make out the beaded cords, but I needed to see how that feature wears in order to find it on my coin.
