[QUOTE="Marshall, post: 2763563, member: 21705"]I've been at this for fifty years and just made another rookie mistake. There was nothing wrong with the posting, but I thought I'd discovered a third 1802 stemless wreath. But I failed to account for the reverse being rotated and mixed up the berry leaf combination. [ATTACH=full]635686[/ATTACH] It looked like the leaf/berry of the S-231 and the fraction bar and numerator of the S-241. It was a buy it now and I was headed to church and it would be gone before I returned so I bought it. When I returned home, I cropped the photo and rotated it to add to my_coin folder and realized my mistake.
