<p>[QUOTE="RBBDoughty, post: 2089079, member: 73447"]IMHO, your coin doesn't appear to have the <a href="http://indianvarieties.com/cents/1867-indian-head-penny/1867-rpd-003/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://indianvarieties.com/cents/1867-indian-head-penny/1867-rpd-003/" rel="nofollow">RPD-003</a> (S-2) or <a href="http://indianvarieties.com/cents/1867-indian-head-penny/1867-rpd-004/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://indianvarieties.com/cents/1867-indian-head-penny/1867-rpd-004/" rel="nofollow">RPD-004</a> (S-3) date position. The date on your coin is further to the west, and the 7 is very high above the denticles. Also, KurtS linked the S2 which clearly shows extra outlines under the bust, which I don't see on your coin. Acutally, there are extra outlines under the bust on the S3 as well.</p><p><br /></p><p>I hate to ask, but are you positive the coin is genuine? There are some things that kinda don't look quite right to me. For instance, the base of the 1 looks more squared than what I'm use to seeing. The base of the one on genuine coins typically narrows as it meets the post. The top of the 8 also seems very narrow. Feel free to browse the <a href="http://indianvarieties.com/pennies/indian-head-cents/1867-indian-head-penny/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://indianvarieties.com/pennies/indian-head-cents/1867-indian-head-penny/" rel="nofollow">1867 date pictures</a> we have up right now on the site for comparison.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
