@PamR …Not ATB…2008 States quarter. The Mint did not make a special die to have a separated nose. You need to take all the other circulation...
This is the “inspiration” I referred to. The Wiki article explains all 3.
The Wiki article answers this too.
@Gold Hat …go to Wikipedia and read the “Design” section on the IHC. There is a tale, an inspiration and a supposition regarding who the obverse...
The obverse for the IHC is Liberty wearing a headdress, IIRC, there was no model. It is similar to Liberty wearing wings for the “mercury” dime.
@acan451 …AU50 is $37.00 @ NGC, but I think this is XF40/$35.00USD…Current melt is $19.92. $27.00CAD = $21.41USD. If you verify a desirable...
IMO, you need to keep/cherish them for the antiques they are…you have some very beautiful items. I especially like the coffee/tea pot and the...

No. Your Jeff does not have complete steps, nor is it Mint State. IIRC, to qualify for full steps the coin has to be mint state and not a proof...
Can’t tell from those blurry close-ups.
Great photography! …for a great find…really nice coin…Spark
Serial numbers. I’ve seen them with and without. Depends on the company producing the silver bar…different strokes for different folks… (Cited...
…Very minor doubling…best seen on the vertical legs of the “N”. @Cowinthehole …Thanks for the close-ups…very nice 3 pence…nice pick up…Spark
For the most part it is garbage. You can find good info there. But for coin info, it is rarely true, accurate or comprehensive…they thrive on...
Did you match it at Wexler or Coneca?
Your coin is very, very nice. You need to work on your pics…these are slightly out of focus.
Please post a close-up of the doubling on the obverse…can’t see it from those pics.
No, I think he is saying it should not be considered doubling, and I happen to agree with him. With the application of single-squeeze in die...
