Message:: [QUOTE="silver bce, post: 1790279, member: 57181"]I am new to this as I stated before. I was in a hurry when I spoke with this coin dealer maybe I heard incorrectly the name. The dealer Robert  seemed to know what he was talking about. I asked him about the 8/7 in the small letter coin and he said it was in the cherry pickers guide there are some found. He wasn't sure about mine being an 8/7 but he did look it over for about 20 minuets and he did think it was a ddo. He thinks I should have it slabed I assume that means graded. I don't own the book personally however he did show it to me so I can only believe that the SL 1858/7 does exist. The person in question Larry Longburger was supposedly have help write the book. Robert said that he was staying with him in Fredericksburg Va. The coin show is held at Fredericksburg Expo &Conference Center 2371 Carl D. Silver Parkway Fredricksburg, VA 22401 and he had a booth next to his. I am not far from there so I am sure that I will go there. I should find an expert on this coin. I Will let everyone know what I find out bad or good. Please keep the thoughts coming in it helps me to learn.  Thanks[/QUOTE]
