[QUOTE="Marshall, post: 2607000, member: 21705"]I just purchased this coin by accident. [ATTACH=full]569977[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]569981[/ATTACH] I attributed it using an image database which inadvertently left off the S-230 pairing with Sheldons Obverse 5 (Breen Obverse 5) on a Reverse Image of Sheldon's Reverse D (Breen's Reverse D). I jumped at the NC-2 find since the Reverse attribution is solid as a rock with the leaf tip left of the upright of the D and the low leaves above and almost touching the O(N) and E. But looking at the date with it's damaged 1 it looks like the low 8 and leans right just isn't strong enough for attribution and even looks a bit like the S-230. Now the problem. Looking at the top of the Obverse, the separation of the L and I and an apparent die break at a descending angle from E to R looks like the Obverse 4 of the NC-2 anyway. [ATTACH=full]569984[/ATTACH]NC-2 [ATTACH=full]569985[/ATTACH]Subject[ATTACH=full]569986[/ATTACH]S-230 This looks like the NC-2. I need some help here.[/QUOTE]
