I would place it as a Late IV or Early V with definite dentil clash marks at D S (IV) and the beginning of obverse swelling. Whether you consider...
Some people focus on the terminal dies states in their collection and I have paid a premium for them at times. But that went well over what I...
Much like any collectable, the desire to own something others cannot, at least in large numbers, is alluring. Of course, demand is the reason the...
I believe you are right. Unfortunately, the "letters" are actually just common rim damage and the planchet is not thick or even over sized from a...
I would have bowed out too. I wasn't going for that one since I recently picked up a S-202 in the terminal die state VII which was also lightly...
The 76 arrived today, but unfortunately it was a 76b with edge damage. I'm definitely returning this one.
I feel like a kid waiting for Christmas morning while waiting to see if this is as described. I was disappointed last time when what I thought...
I've been following a S-133 on eBay which has been under $61 until today. Apparently a few others have too and decided to bid early. I'm out as it...

So far, Draped Bust Obverse and Reverse of 94/95. If you didn't pay too much, it's worth the fun of attributing it. I'm immediately drawn to...
Glad to help. It's always good to have confirmation because if somebody else can't see what you see, the attribution is suspect. If they see it...
S-166 R1, S-150 R5, S-187 R1, S-163 R4-, S-164 R4
Congratulations.
Here are overdate obverses 1-6 of 1800 for convenience: [ATTACH]
I haven't seen many for a variety which is supposed to be common (R1, R2, R3.) But I did bid on one recently which was unattributed, but lost out....
Thanks for not bidding and thanks for the confirmation of the attribution and also that the S-195s may not be quite as rare as reported.
Attribution Diagnostics: OBVERSE The 9 undertype in the first 0 is boldly visible. It is distinctly a 9 and not a chip eliminating the Q variety...
I just picked this up. Take a shot at attribution. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
