<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Hoky77, post: 6883098, member: 97374&quot;]The 1864 bronze die state has to be taken into account and your pictures don&#039;t tell that story. The 1864 dies were used, polished, and used some more. When one of a die pair failed it was replaced with what they had on hand, often in very different states. This is one one where they got a lot of mileage out of the obv. die with a second or ? pairing. The details of the rev. die are fairly crisp in comparison to the well polished obv. die. This coin I&#039;ll post here is probably close to if not AU. but if you only look at the obv. it barely makes VF. Taken separately they tell a different story than the sum</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1272724[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1272725[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
