<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 8204752, member: 66&quot;]The 1834 is easy, there are only 7 varieties and you can pretty much ignore N-7 (proof only and only 8 known)&nbsp; There are 2 varieties with large stars and 4 with small stars.&nbsp; All of the small star varieties have star 6 pointing just about right at the point of the coronet.&nbsp; On this coin it is well right of the coronet point so it is a large star variety. (N-1 or N-2)&nbsp; On so look at A3 (last A in America).&nbsp; On N-1 the leaf point is below the right most serif of the A, on N-2 it is below the center of the A.&nbsp; This is N-1.</p><p><br /></p><p>As for the late date coins, they are usually very difficult to impossible to attribute from photos and in general I don&#039;t even try.&nbsp; If the date position isn&#039;t diagnostic the identifying features are usually too small/indistinct to see unless the images are large and very sharp, and preferably the coin is XF or better.</p><p><br /></p><p>Having said that the 1841 is either N-4 or N-5 and I am leaning toward N-4 because I think I can see the die crack running from the star point on star 8 to the rim over star 9.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
