<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Paddy54, post: 4567203, member: 19250&quot;]You know I never checked to see if this was a discovery coin. But yeah who&#039;s work is this... I&#039;ve seen some crazy stuff on coins but when I saw this I had to have it....now the other 1869 /1869 heavy over thin date .</p><p>Thats a fs-05-1869-1302 (005.3) fletcher 104 </p><p>My pricing on this is so out of date its hard to place a value not that any are for sale they are not.</p><p>There is a thin or tall date 1869 that is rarer as most of the 1869 were heavy fat digits.</p><p>These are fun to collect....but a warning you can get caught up chasing these they can be found in mid grades raw&nbsp; under 100 sometimes less...and varieties are just about on every coin. Die cracks, cuds, ddo&#039;s , rpd, </p><p>I recall hunting a varity known as a 1876 bleeder... a very rare mint error in engraving at the mint.</p><p>I found 1 on the bay....but it had damage ....bad damage ...obv.looked unc......the rev. Huges gouges and strached. Ugh....I had to pass on it...way to much damage to make it worth the variety. A 1876 shield is a semi key anyway.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
