<p>[QUOTE="beef1020, post: 1659127, member: 24544"]If you draw a line between ONE and CENT horizontally, where that line crosses the leaf above the C in CENT, or a little above the line, there appears to be a little point on the leaf.

Now, if it's an N28, it will also have another point on the middle of the C in CENT, on the inside, which is going in the same direction as the one on the leaf. May be tough to see, you would need a loupe and a light which you can turn the coin under.</p><p><br /></p><p>If you are going to sell it, and have access to one of the bigger shows I would recommend bringing it to one of the big copper dealers.
