[QUOTE="stldanceartist, post: 7586897, member: 13307"]Yeah, I'm starting under the assumption that it would be an 1871... It's more likely due to the higher mintage (400k vs. 120k) plus the most convincing view I can get of the third digit in the date does look like a straight line. After viewing some 1891's, that 9 is a lot curvier than whatever metal remains on this coin's date. So, it's probably an 1871 - just wanted to know if there was something obvious about the design that would limit it to one date or the other. I think [USER=76105]@Omegaraptor[/USER] is on the right track. Thanks, all![/QUOTE]
