<p>[QUOTE="Marshall, post: 1566582, member: 21705"]This is a poor, but rare variety S-111 (R5-) with a moderate confidence factor due strictly from wear. Position of the 1 and 6 relative to the hair and bust leads to Obverse 20. The two reverses are U (S-111) and V (NC-5) and there is just enough of the left stem showing to see it almost reach the top of U(N) indicating the S-111. On Rev V, it only reaches about half way to the top. Wear makes the definitive break between the 9 and 6 uncertain at best. But I think I see a break at I(B) to the back of the head which is consistent with the later die states of obverse 20, but again weak due to wear and damage. The wide spacing between I and B is consistent as well.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?type=3&campid=5335874456&toolid=10001&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fitm%2F1796-Draped-Bust-Large-Cent-No-Reserve-%2F200839894378%3Fpt%3DCoins_US_Individual%26hash%3Ditem2ec2fd956a" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?type=3&campid=5335874456&toolid=10001&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fitm%2F1796-Draped-Bust-Large-Cent-No-Reserve-%2F200839894378%3Fpt%3DCoins_US_Individual%26hash%3Ditem2ec2fd956a" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebay.com/itm/1796-Draped-Bust-Large-Cent-No-Reserve-/200839894378?pt=Coins_US_Individual&hash=item2ec2fd956a</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
