<p>[QUOTE="Tater, post: 2082449, member: 9717"]So I sent in about 15 1847 large cents into ngc to be graded and attributed. I had them looked at and attributed by a very qualified person before I sent them off. Of the fifteen all but one was as expected. However I had one that was not attributed. I called ngc and asked them why it did not receive its N number and they mentioned that the dies were too worn. I need someone to help me out on this as the coin received a grade of au 58. The guy that I used was able to determine it was a N 38 and from what I understand from the large cent bible most of the attribution is determined from the placement of the date in relation to liberty's head and the denticles and than you look at the die details to confirm and determine if it's an early, mid or late state die state. Help me out here so I understand this better.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
