<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 26050686, member: 66"]The OP coin is a large fraction so it is either a 275 or a 276. I believe they have the same reverse. Yours appears to be 276. The key is the BE in LIBERTY. On 275 the B is about the same size as the E and the base of the E points into the bottom curve of the B.</p><p><img src="http://64.60.141.195/photos/54jpegs/143082.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p>On the 276 the B is smaller and the base of the E points below the B.</p><p><img src="http://64.60.141.195/photos/54jpegs/143083.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p>Yours appear to point below the B</p><p><img src="https://www.cointalk.com/attachments/img_2717-jpeg.1656086/" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p>Another thing to check is the die orientation.
