What is the weight? Alternatively, could you post a picture of the edge with a later date large cent for comparison? Except for a few mint errors,...
Is this a case of die sinking from whatever cause? It's a cool find regardless. Oops! Just saw the die sinking comment after my third reading.
It is far enough gone that my opinion is different from Conders. I see T central above, but close to the highest wave of hair which would...
That was sure to come. See, YOU did it.
This is a very low confidence attribution because the coin's details are just about gone. But I think there's just enough left to identify it as...
The reverse is easily determined to be Sheldon's Rev A. The 1 seems too fat for the typical S-271 so I initially rejected it. But the obverse...
This is a good one. An unattributed 1796 S-117 R5+(30-42 Known). It appears to be Die State I or II since there is no evidence of the die crack...
This is another TPG misattributed Large Cent. This time it's PCGS....
Just be careful using the Breen Photos for identification. There are some errors. The descriptions are good and I use them in conjunction with the...
It may very well be a stain. It may have been full retail, but I suspect this lovely old copper will grow on you. Will you try to attribute it?...
I think you're the one who is mixed up. It's a regressive tax which takes more from the small savers than the large savers who are more likely to...
While the effect is the same, the Government never STEALS money. They Tax so it's not illegal. Now the tax may very well be Unconstitutional, but...
S-69 confirmed. It appears to be State I or State II since the die crack through 9 is not evident. This is one of 5 obverses often called head of...
I'm not a toner person, but it looks natural to me.
I'm ashamed to say I didn't even notice the CUD. Great pickup.
It's a shame because that variety has so many secondary diagnostics that the single leaf primary diagnostic is not that important for attribution....
I find this quite amusing since finding a low grade 16-D with a strong D immediately raises my suspicion of tampering. But some people???
You have a coin with some provenance or history of ownership there. The L18 is probably an earlier Obverse Reverse designation. Perhaps Hayes. 69...
I'm glad I could assist. I couldn't get the 1800 down so we made a pretty good team.
Perhaps i should be more specific. It's the only 1797 pairing of this reverse die (Sheldon Rev R/Breen Rev J). It was also used for three...
