<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Eduard, post: 1503599, member: 8959&quot;]I thought I would share with you the latest additions to my large cent collection.</p><p><br /></p><p>The first is an 1801 S-219 variety, R-2, commoner of the two varieties known as &#039;3 Error </p><p>Varieties&#039;. The reverse shows the fraction as 1/000, also the U in united is made up of two </p><p>I&#039;s and the wreath is missing the left stem. The die cutter must have been thinking about something else as he cut this die all those years ago in Philadelphia!&nbsp; I bought this one at the </p><p>recent Summer FUN show in Orlando.</p><p><br /></p><p>The other coin is an 1794 cent with the head of 1793. It is (I am almost sure) and S-18b. </p><p>It is the commonest of the 1794 heads of 1793, rated R-4. It shows a very weak (and lightly </p><p>scratched reverse) with details visible only in ghost form. The obverse is sharper, and you </p><p>can clearly see the double chin typical of this variety.&nbsp; The edge has the leaf after &#039;Dollar&#039; turned up. This is what distinguishes the S-18b from the much scarcer S-18a (which has the leaf endpointing downward). As described, the coins has defects, including a possible light cleaning,and the reverse is very weak; but hey, it a a head of 93 (and it was priced very low).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
