[IMG] 1795 S-78 Struck on a Talbot Allum & Lee Token? It weighs in at 149 grains.
This is the rarest coin I own: [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] That is of course if you don't count my S-78 struck on a TAL Token. Unfortunately....
Perhaps I should have said a steal. $180 is a bargain compared to the cheapest one I could find at $795. This is definitely superior to that one...
I managed to get this one, but I can't seem to get the bargain. It jumped from $16 to $180 in the last second. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
My pleasure.
Update on this. This weighed in at 151 grains which is 2 grains under a TAL token, 17 grains under a 76b and 57 grains under a 76a. I'm not sure...
I'm sorry. There's just not enough there to attribute it. If I HAD TO choose, I'd probably go with S-204 because of an impression that the LIBERTY...
This S-124 appears to be Die State IV to me. It is really a nice one as Vg10 is in a tie for 9th or 10th best. I believe this has at least fine...
For what it's worth, I am of the opinion that Reverse F of the S-195 and the Reverse P of the S-204 and S-205 are actually the same reverse with...
I think more pixels are in order to see the detail in the diagnostics: [ATTACH]
First look at my newest post. Then, if we think we've found something, there are much better ways of seeking verification than a third party...
Another candidate has just taken the lead. I've added diagnostics to your High Res and show the comp side by side. [ATTACH] The key new...
The obverse enhancement of the obverse appears to show a 17 as the first two digits of the date. The high res scans show what might be corrosion...

Not that it helps much, but this is the other 1801 NC-5. As you can see, it is only identifiable by the catastrophic die failure: [ATTACH]...
The photos you just sent look less like a falling berry than this one from your prior post which I have included in this comparison. The coin left...
My initial examination indicates either a very common 1798 S-187 or an extremely rare 1801 NC-5. The odds are the former. Unfortunately there is...
It is intriguing. The combination of the slightly falling berry at O(NE) with the junction of the ribbon and stem at the wreath (excluding the...
179 visible, Type 2 hair, Reverse of 98, so limited to 98 or 99. I'll have to rotate it to match my comps. After rotating both obverse and...
The rarity does make the difference. A 1799 isn't significantly different from a common 1798, but they are much harder to find. The price is...
