[QUOTE="HandsomeToad, post: 505732, member: 12965"]Awesome job Fish! :thumb: I don't know the half-cents well but I do know the large ones. ;) Here's one I reported to CFE today: [URL]http://cgi.ebay.com/1799-Draped-Bust-Large-Cent-Very-RARE_W0QQitemZ270334272123[/URL] [COLOR=#1a1a1a]Here's my message to the seller: [/COLOR][COLOR=#1a1a1a][I]"This is without a doubt NOT a 1799. Here is why: The E in LIBERTY is dead center to the hair (above the dip). The numerator in the fraction (the top 1) is way too high. This is clearly a 1798 with an altered date. Ribbit [IMG]http://groups.ebay.com/images/emoticons/happy.gif[/IMG] Ps: I sent this to some of my EAC friends so I'd suspect they will be messaging you also."[/I] [/COLOR] Tom Deck has already confirmed it isn't a 1799 and he says the date is also wrong. :whistle: Ribbit :)[/QUOTE]
