<p>[QUOTE="gronnh20, post: 2999338, member: 73224"]There were definitely more folks recommending the Grellman book over the Newcomb when I started this thread. I think when I sourced the Newcomb book the same source did not have a Grellman in stock. I went to look for one again and was sidetracked by the anthology book I referenced above.</p><p><br /></p><p>Newcomb references a die crack from the bust point to star 2 for N-13. Then goes on to say the die crack extends from star 2 to the rim. Obviously, the coin I purchased does not have that die crack. I had found some of these inconsistencies in previous attributions. As a matter of fact, these inconsistencies started with a coin I purchased on E-Bay. I couldn't match the reverse with the obverse attribution. That is when I went looking for the Grellman book the second time and bought the anthology. </p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks for sharing that information.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
