I'm professing ignorance here, but would you tell me who CAC is? Something as simple as EAC (Early American Coppers, Inc.) or ANA (American...
I can't figure out how to delete a duplicate post.
I wish I could assist, but I only have Early date and Middle date reference material. General questions like how a 1847 could show an earlier die...
I sent this to Bob Grellman this morning so he could take a look. Both he and Tom Deck (both highly respected by the Collector community at large...
It looks really nice. Maybe too nice. But I suppose there are some real really nice ones too.
The study of coinage pays off again. Congratulations!
I definitely want the Jefferson Liberties. I just have to wait for a pay day.

I hope this is what I have to look forward to. Of course, I may not live that long at the rate they're toning.
One day I hope to capture the beauty of the coins the way you do.
Both my yellers are still in the mint packaging. I'll try to take photos, but I'm still new at it. I'm just now getting the hang of Large Cents...
Hint. Reverse EE, but must use secondary diagnostics since the primary diagnostic is obscured by corrosion.
I'll have to remember that. I don't have the reference material for those.
