<p>[QUOTE="tpsadler, post: 2301573, member: 9860"]I have included two images which I just finished. The first image downloaded that Jason had made was in error. I felt this coin was whizzed because the Obverse Image is has a stepped area all the way around the Indian with that area also being very roughly done. Most of the Longacre Doubling is very roughly cut next to the lettering (Unlike Double Die Marking used by Longacre). As the indicator of harshly modified surface of this coin is not indicated with this image as may be seen if viewed in person. I am basing my thoughts on the Secondary Images running next to the Primary Surfaces. Also note the Reverse of this coin between 8:30 and 11:00 the unusual wear between the Oak Leafs and the Rim. Upon reviewing Snows Attributed Coins of 1866 I was unable find any these coins with a premium listed found for the Obverse Die Breaks or the Reverse Die Clashes extending inward from the inner Oak Leafs from 2:00 to 4:00, in my opinion these would have to be a Ribbon Feathers Die Clash although there were other areas that I could not identify as Die Clashes.</p><p><br /></p><p>Hopefully this will give Frans another prospective and encourage further involvement with the coin hobby (It a lot of fun). He will see many people will have different views of the same coin. Good Luck <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
