#2 Bit of Help, Please - Newcomb Number?

this is a tough one. I am not sure this is a tall date. With the date position and repunching under the one it looks like N-5 to me but I cannot really see any reverse markers to confirm this.

 

I agree with @jerryc39. I'm not sure it's the tall date. JMO.

 

Thanks for the responses.
I have the same problem ID'ing these coins.
Some of the PUP's are so fragile that if the coin isn't MS they have disappeared.
And based on Tom's images I don't see it as a Tall Date.

 

looking closer at reverse I see some lumps on the E in cent that are in the right spots. Also a faint line connecting the top and bottom of same E. N-5 seems right to me. Interesting that PCGS botched the Tall Date designation.

 

Really have to look close for even a guess. My decision, according to mozzillo's chart, is medium. The 6 appears to be straight up rather than tilted, this is the reason for my decision. Thanks for the post and thanks to mozzillo for the chart. Be safe

 

N-5. Small date. Minor RPD on just the 1

 

Thanks for keeping at it.
Now I can complete the picture.

The question now is, can I get NGC to redo the label?
I've already got a slab being redone by them because they botched the face value on a foreign coin.

 

I would think they would fix the error yes.
