Or S-56, the office boy reverse? Those two are the closest I can determine.
@Marshall I need your help with attributing my newest lady friend. The reverse has me stumped. The ribbon knot kinda looks like a S-18 but maybe...
Mighty fine write up as always Marshall. First time I have seen this thread. The op's coin is fantastic. It will fetch way more than she has been...
I was pulling out some large cents to reply to another post and came across this 1854. I guess I never looked at the back before. I've seen plenty...
Sorry for the duplicate posts. Internet is spotty tonight.
Here's a photo of one of mine. [ATTACH]
With the better photos, It's a 1838. Fairly common to have a weak strike that makes the date hard to read.
Your coin is from a different year. I can't read the date but the 1828 on the right is a coronet head. Yours appears to be the "young head" from...

I try and run a newly listed each day then watch the item and come back a day or two later to attribute. Takes a lot of time according to my wife.
Here's an interesting draped bust that came in the mail today with two others I bought as undated. In hand it's either 1798 or 96. Very hard to...
Marshall I picked this 1796 about 1 1/2 ago for $80. I know I got a deal but they are out there. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
$200 was the starting price in an auction. I think you can find a nicer lower grade for that price unless no one else bids. Obverse is fairly nice.
Thanks Marshall, I thought I was going crazy for a moment. I too think it's real unless someone had way too much time on their hands to create an...
The 6 looks much lower than the op's coin. What am I missing?
As most will tell you is buy the books before the coin. With that said most of the large cent reference books are quite expensive. I own and use...

Sorry if I created this conflict. I was trying to be helpful and learn at the same time. I'm not an expert and I use various reference books to...
It appears to me to be S-81. As for the corrosion, I've seen much worse on coins found under houses that the only part on the coin legible was the...
Separate names with a comma.
