Does anybody know Valentine number and rarity rating for the 1832 H10 C, where the lower loop of the "8" is filled? I googled it but found no conclusive answer. Thanks! Eduard
Using Logan's book here's what I've found. With a die chip in the lower loop the Valentine number is V-2. Rarity 2. With the lower loop filled it depends upon the reverse it's married with. It's Valentine V-6. Rarity 3. REVERSE: "Die crack from rim to top of A1 to scroll over R. Die crack at base of NITED. ... Very weak dentils." OR It's Valentine V-7. Rarity 4. REVERSE: "N is filled between diagonal and right upright. Die crack from left most leaf to rim. Weak dentils."
Thank you very much Kanga! I will examine my coin closely for the diags. you describe. (these coins are so tiny you need a loupe AND good eyes - neither of which i have). Eduard
