I have been looking thru a $50 bag of 63D hoping to find one. At one time there was a 73' that looked almost the same, but it was debunked.
Neat variety, I hope you didn't have to pay too much.
It was the wrong answer. But sounded good.
I am glad someone posted it. @Twyzm your looks like a later die stage than what is shown on VV. Nice find!
I spent a little bit of time this morning looking up the variety. This is the same reverse die that was used on the 1833 B-1. The reverse design...
I know what there business model is. There are plenty of coins that get a sticker that are over graded by at least a point or 2, some IMO 3-4...

We have a few auction house's here in the metro. I used to go every once in a while. There weren't many deals to be had on coins. Unless it was...
Nice find and a cool error. It still would be nice to see the reverse side of the coin. I would get that into an airtite. So that it doesn't get...

No worries we are all incorrect. Maybe you can teach us how 200+ years of numismatics supports your theory.
I caught some better scenery with these photos. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
None of what you did is going to change the terminal color. Someone said above to definitely dilute the Ezest if you use it, I agree. Also, the...
