63.5 PL -- could go either way.
That must be an interesting set to look at! :)
Here are a few examples of longacre doubling. I see them most often from the coins of the 1850's and 1860's, but also in some issues until the...
Does anyone have an example of a coin that shows both mechanical AND Longacre doubling? The point being, this coin CLEARLY has evidence of...
