<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Marshall, post: 1243305, member: 21705&quot;]OK. I &#039;ll go ahead and say it.</p><p><br /></p><p>#1. Type I hair with Type 2 Lettering. Definitely NOT a 1799 Obverse. The 1797 Obverse (21) with this pairing doesn&#039;t match the unusually wide spacing of LIBERTY. The 1798 Obverse closest to this one is Obverse 15 of 1798 NC-2 though that is not an exact match. Next would be Obverse 11. The known Obverses are Obverses 7-20 of 1798. The type one hair was only used one more time on Obverse 1 of 1800, though it was paired with 4 Reverses that year, but the E isn&#039;t in the rockin&#039; chair on that one either.</p><p><br /></p><p>Neither of these is paired with Reverse HH of 1798 which is the reverse on this electrotype. </p><p><br /></p><p>This is an electrotype of a counterfeit or an unknown obverse with the 1798 HH Reverse. Note the hanging berry at top inside left which is diagnostic.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
