<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Publius2, post: 8047005, member: 105571&quot;][USER=110679]@bradgator2[/USER], your coin looks like it is the 1837 GR-3, an R-2 die marriage.&nbsp; I didn&#039;t expend a lot of time on the attribution so I could be off but the reverse die crack certainly seems to match the description of the early die state for Reverse C.&nbsp; There were a couple of pickups on the obverse that I couldn&#039;t see on your coin but Reverse C was only used with Obverse 2 so the attribution is probably correct.</p><p><br /></p><p>I don&#039;t know why the TPG gave your coin a details grade.&nbsp; I have seen much worse than the ding on the shield get a straight grade.&nbsp; But OTOH, I don&#039;t think I agree with an AU grade.&nbsp; Doesn&#039;t matter at all if you&#039;re going to crack it out to put in a DANSCO and if you are happy with it that is what matters.</p><p><br /></p><p>The above is from my copy of Graham&#039;s book which I bought from him at the FUN show pre-pandemic.&nbsp; Same time I bought this 1839-O half from him.[ATTACH=full]1392984[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
