    Hello All,

    Here is a different set of pics of the 1807 Quarter. As you can see there are a couple of problems with it besides 200 years of wear. The first is on the reverse where the (25) was scratched off and the other is on the obverse near star 6 and the L, (they do match as far as where a clasp might have been located for a necklace.) It appears to have been a piece of jewlery ar one point, but upon closer inspection it could have been a damaged planchet along with a die crack which runs thru B and into the edge of E. On the back there is another crack which runs from the rim thru O and into the cloud.

    I was hoping someone with Bust Qtr experience could chime in with some thoughts or anyone else for that matter :)

    Take Care
    Ben

    Duh, never even thought to check the (playground.) Your truly a wealth :) The town of Binghamton, NY was named after both her and her husband. I've been there. My wife has some family with a small farm there and we attended a family reunion.
