[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 1018405, member: 66"]Don't worry I won't blackball you. :) According to Breen the perfect die state state was discovered in 1951. The more I look at this coin the more I favor the perfect die S-213. I eliminated all the reverses except A, B, and F (NC-5 different Rev F than in Sheldon) pretty quickly. I eliminate rev F because it has a medium length clear stem to the berry left of CENT. I eliminate Rev B of NC-1 because the berry on the top left berry slopes up and goes into the center of the berry. On this coin it is almost horizontal and goes to the top of the berry which matches Rev A. That would be S-213, 214, or 215. But it doesn't show the reverse cracks that are always present on 214 and 215 and only on the latest state of 213. So by process of elimination it has to be S-213.[/QUOTE]
