<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 2796084, member: 66&quot;]And I have seen fake 1804 cents ( in TPG slabs) that were altered 1803&#039;s that had the 0 and O in OF lined up.&nbsp; It does occur in other varieties.&nbsp; Notice Noyes says it is almost infallible.&nbsp; Noyes is VERY good and the alignment&nbsp; check is a good test, but it is a test of exclusion.&nbsp; If the coin fails the test it is no good, if it passes the test it may still not be good and needs to be checked further.&nbsp; (i&#039;m not saying your coin ISN&#039;T and 1804, I&#039;m just saying so far I&#039;m not convinced.&nbsp; I&#039;m also a member of EAC and specialize in the early dates.&nbsp; Been doing draped busts since 1982.&nbsp; Have 184 of the 187 numbered varieties and four of the NC&#039;s.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
