<p>[QUOTE="messydesk, post: 3341197, member: 1765"]For 1889, the two things to look at are the date position (near, far, normal, slanted) and Liberty's ear to see if there's doubling. There are also a few repunched dates, and pitted reverses, but not many. Due to die wear, 1889 can be a tricky beast to attribute. I'm not picking up on anything on your coin from the photo other than the normal date position, which you have already identified, and a clashed die, which may not come into play at all.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
