<p>[QUOTE=&quot;BostonCoins, post: 1628073, member: 34720&quot;]Hello everyone!</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m trying to get better at my attributions with Large Cents.... so I am hoping to get your opinion! Through one of the websites for coin sales, I came across this unattributed coin and thought it would be fun to figure it out.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here is the link to the sellers site:&nbsp; --&gt;<a href="http://http://www.ebay.com/itm/1795-Flowing-Hair-Liberty-Cap-Large-Cent-Poor-Lowball-/221183246183?pt=Coins_US_Individual&amp;hash=item337f8c7f67" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://http://www.ebay.com/itm/1795-Flowing-Hair-Liberty-Cap-Large-Cent-Poor-Lowball-/221183246183?pt=Coins_US_Individual&amp;hash=item337f8c7f67" rel="nofollow">http://http://www.ebay.com/itm/1795-Flowing-Hair-Liberty-Cap-Large-Cent-Poor-Lowball-/221183246183?pt=Coins_US_Individual&amp;hash=item337f8c7f67</a></p><p><br /></p><p>After looking and looking, I have narrowed my opinions down to two options. They are the S76a and the S77.</p><p><br /></p><p>My diagnostics are based soley upon the Obverse of the coin, where the reverse is toasted. In addition, the seller makes no mention of the edge (plain or not).</p><p><br /></p><p>The diagnostics I used to narrow down to these two were: Position of the base of the T in Liberty in conjunction withe the Hairline at the Forehead.</p><p><br /></p><p>However, that only got me to those two selections. I narrowed it down even further by seeing that the S77 has a weak pole due to the die being ground down..... This coin appears to have this, but certainly could be due to wear.</p><p><br /></p><p>So my guess is this is an S77..... </p><p><br /></p><p>Any opinions?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
