In the early-mid 1950's cigs were 20c a pack.
Your dad was Richard Runion, EAC 5144. He showed his coin to other EAC'ers at the July 2006 Baltimore show and that meeting was written up in the...
NSP, you have done a *GREAT* presentation that I thank you for *PROFUSELY* !!
Just two that we can be sure of because the dies were used both pre and post overdating. The two they did do it with had short use lives...
Your 1838 cent is an early-state Newcomb 10. Guaranteed! 1838 is a very tough year to attribute, but your coin is a lovely one that makes the task...

Definitely not 1794. Either 1795 or 1796, STRONGLY think 1795. That's a BS1, likely unattributable -- likely S-76b, 77, or 78.
That has more meat on it than a Basal-State-1. I'd call it Fair-2. But for TEN BUX, CONGRATULATIONS!
I'm in love with my Fau2 Sestertius because even though she's not the most beautiful I've seen, she's the biggest I've seen at 34.7gm.[ATTACH]...
Give it time. Your brain will grow its own 'delete' button.
To me the coin looks good, but on a crappy planchet. But I too don't like the weight. If we get lucky, maybe we can get Jack Young to give his...
