<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Collecting Nut, post: 4912402, member: 74863&quot;]I posted this earlier but totally forgot what it really is and I didn&#039;t look at my notes either. I apologize to all for my gross error in this coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>This is not considered an overdate, in the true sense. It is one of the many spectacular Date-Punch blunders on Large Cents from 1844 through 1854. The date is punched upside down, then punched normally. This is most obivious on the first four. You can see the rounded part of the 8 to the top right of the 4. This is the best photo I could get as the coin is on the darker side but it&#039;s clearly visible. </p><p><br /></p><p>Not a bad buy for $7.00. This date has the upside down punch and the normal punch so just the two varieties exist. The mintage for this date is 2,398,752.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1184937[/ATTACH] </p><p>[ATTACH=full]1184942[/ATTACH] </p><p>[ATTACH=full]1184939[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
