[QUOTE="desertgem, post: 432441, member: 15199"]This 1857 FE has several of the diagnostics of a Snow-10, but there is a couple of things that makes me suspect it might be a related one or a different die state. Here is the coin : [IMG]http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r78/predcarn/9-28/1857obv.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r78/predcarn/9-28/1857rev.jpg[/IMG] Here is the eagle head for double beak and eye, but the doubling on the eye seems north rather than the south as in the references. [IMG]http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r78/predcarn/9-28/eye-beak.jpg[/IMG] Here is the date. The bottom of the 5 and the 7 does show a triple tip and the 8 also shows a definite repunching. The 1 is repunched S whereas in FINDERS it is to the N. [IMG]http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r78/predcarn/9-28/1857date.jpg[/IMG] Also, the letters show doubling of the Motto differently. [IMG]http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r78/predcarn/9-28/1857motto.jpg[/IMG] Any comment or suggestions on variety? Thanks Jim[/QUOTE]
