<p>[QUOTE="Marshall, post: 1626483, member: 21705"]This is a low grade example of what I believe to be an S-143 R5. Because of wear, it is moderate confidence and some will consider it unidentifiable. But I believe their is sufficient detail to identify the type two lettering at R and the imbedded 7 in the bust to identify it as Obverse 21. The Reverse appears to have no stem, but the best distinction is the location of the leaf tip under the middle of M rather than the right upright of M on the S-142. I usually tell people that you should only get it if YOU are comfortable with the identification. </p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/1797-DRAPED-BUST-LARGE-CENT-N-R-/160965362616?pt=Coins_US_Individual&hash=item257a4883b8" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/1797-DRAPED-BUST-LARGE-CENT-N-R-/160965362616?pt=Coins_US_Individual&hash=item257a4883b8" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebay.com/itm/1797-DRAPED-BUST-LARGE-CENT-N-R-/160965362616?pt=Coins_US_Individual&hash=item257a4883b8</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
