<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Sandy_NS, post: 2654675, member: 85418&quot;]Bill,</p><p><br /></p><p>I have just found a 1859 LC in my coin collection. I am wondering if it is brass but after reading your previous post if there anything specifically that I can look for?</p><p><br /></p><p>My coin is weighing in at 4.3 (rounds up to the nearest) grams and is just larger than then an inch wide. There is also a small hole in the coin and it has not seemed to oxidize. The hole does not disturb the image or the writing. It is a brown circulated coin with some of the metal tone showing through.</p><p>It appears to be a &#039;narrow&#039; 9 with the die crack through the leaf above the &#039;O&#039;.</p><p><br /></p><p>I would like to know your thoughts.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thank you in advance.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
