<p>[QUOTE=&quot;RedRaider, post: 1596070, member: 27181&quot;]Here is a cool variety in the IHC series.&nbsp; I found this one today, not attributed (as usual) and did not realize what I had until I got home.&nbsp; I purchased because it was a fair price and needed the 1865 &quot;fancy 5&quot; variety in my set.&nbsp; It is graded MS63BN.</p><p><br /></p><p>It is the &quot;debunked&quot; 1865/4 overdate.&nbsp; I say debunked because in the 1990&#039;s, the same date repunch was found on 1865 2-cent pieces, causing a re-classification.&nbsp; It still garnishes a premium, but not like it used to.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>This coin can be easily attributed with the bold repunching in the &quot;1&quot; in the date, as well as by the horizontal die striations by the eye, ear and cheek.&nbsp; The 5/4 portion is very tough to see in any grade.....just looks like a few bumps and a line.</p><p><br /></p><p>1865 Fancy 5, S-1a</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]223460.vB[/ATTACH][ATTACH]223461.vB[/ATTACH][ATTACH]223458.vB[/ATTACH][ATTACH]223459.vB[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
