Well my 1868 missing leaf is the reverse of 1867. It looks like from a glance your 1868 is the same obverse as mine - the cracks look the same....
PS - I have no clue how to price this variety. I think one in worse shape than yours was listed for $29 and did not sell.
Not much of a premium in my opinion - I would not pay a premium for it myself. What I find more interesting is this looks like the missing leaf...
Yep - I have a couple of ancients. And yes for US coins it would be funny, but then again I think that is what EBAY is for at times. Some of...
You do realize it was about 6 years ago that Ardi posted that comment? The thread was resurrected yesterday. :)
Rick Snow would be the expert to wait for - wait for him. I looked left and right and cannot see that 7. Maybe it is a new variety, but like the...

I think XF-45 - if no corrosion spots or cleaning. Nice coin.
What???? I see at least 3 without trying real hard - look south and north. The one inside the D and the west(or left side) I am not sure of.
One of the reasons people always say get a redbook for some of the newest members. A quick lookup shows the mintage. And billions counts as a...
Beautiful coin. Keep it as it is and let someone else take the gamble when you are tired of it. Just my opinion.
Very cool.
Very nice coin.
Way to tough to tell from the pictures. The reverse looks so flat and the obverse shows luster. At the same time the cheek looks a little baggy...
Ahhhh - now don't be shy. I am sure one day NGC will get one right. :) And for those that don't know - I am just kidding. Darn shame RLM did not...
