<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cwtokenman, post: 2206976, member: 2100&quot;]The photos seem to match the written description of an authentic California Fractional piece. In R.H. Burnie&#039;s reference book, the description of No. 60 seems to match very well, which is very similar to the description for No. 57 in the Quarter Dollar Octagon Section. </p><p><br /></p><p>Description for No. 57:</p><p>Obv. - Small Liberty head, 13 stars, 1870 and letter G under head and both slanting slightly to the right. Tip of neck points to first star on left, with peak of coronet pointing between 6th &amp; 7th stars. Stars mostly crude.</p><p><br /></p><p>Rev. - 1/4 Dollar Cal, in an open wreath, the 1/4 in opening and has a slightly slanting solidus, with some double cutting on the 1, 4 and solidus. Plain wreath with nine berries. Letters in Dollar and Cal out of line with R in Dollar recut. There are no crossbars in either of the A&#039;s. No bow-knot. Sawtooth border, attempted reeded edge.</p><p><br /></p><p>Description for No. 60:</p><p>Obv. - Like No. 57</p><p><br /></p><p>Rev. - Like No. 57, except there is a period after Cal. Wreath has 4 berries each side, with two of them beneath the word Cal. Like Lee No. 43.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
