<p>[QUOTE=&quot;desertgem, post: 1306214, member: 15199&quot;]The one you show is the Snow-3 which is a 1869/69 which used to be thought a 1869/8. Besides the features of the date repunch you show, there is also found a die chip on the &quot;I&quot; in UNITED and in Early die state a die chip on the cheek looking like a mole. That is mainly on higher quality EDS.</p><p><br /></p><p>The S-1 ( 1869/186) is easy to spot as it shows 2 separated bottom crossbars of the &quot;1&quot; and is very rare, higher priced than the S-3. The possible rarest one is Breen-1978 which is (1869/69 ) and is hard to see on a medium to low grade coin with good equipment. The S-2 ( 1869/1869) is very rare also, Reounch shows best on the 8.&nbsp; If one gets a 1869 for the price of a normal 1869, I always do it, as wonderful things do happen <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Jim[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
