<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Marshall, post: 1204477, member: 21705&quot;]OK! This is one that I liked because it is a misfit coin. It has nice detail and moderate to severe corrosion/pitting. Ok, severe. It is also an R5+ (which I believe is somewhat overstated). I have two others seeking homes at this time so I thought I&#039;d let you in on this one.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?type=3&amp;campid=5335874456&amp;toolid=10001&amp;mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fcgi.ebay.com%2F1797-Draped-Bust-Large-Cent-Stemless-%2F320715254769%3Fpt%3DCoins_US_Individual%26hash%3Ditem4aac1e6bf1" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?type=3&amp;campid=5335874456&amp;toolid=10001&amp;mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fcgi.ebay.com%2F1797-Draped-Bust-Large-Cent-Stemless-%2F320715254769%3Fpt%3DCoins_US_Individual%26hash%3Ditem4aac1e6bf1" rel="nofollow">http://cgi.ebay.com/1797-Draped-Bust-Large-Cent-Stemless-/320715254769?pt=Coins_US_Individual&amp;hash=item4aac1e6bf1</a></p><p><br /></p><p>The Reverse Identification as Reverse J is quite easy as it is stemless and the leaf is under the upright of D. The four obverse pairings really aren&#039;t that hard when you use a few middle date tricks by looking at dentil locations above the tops of key letters. This one has the two dentils over T, about a half dozen fused dentils across from the chin, a single dentil over the upright of the B with wide gaps on either side and three close dentils between the curve of B and E.</p><p><br /></p><p>Hence, S-132.</p><p><br /></p><p>As I write this, it&#039;s at one cent.</p><p><br /></p><p>These are for easy comparison:</p><p><br /></p><p>Holmes <a href="http://www.icollector.com/1797-S-132-R5-Stemless-Wreath-VF20_i8599260" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.icollector.com/1797-S-132-R5-Stemless-Wreath-VF20_i8599260" rel="nofollow">http://www.icollector.com/1797-S-132-R5-Stemless-Wreath-VF20_i8599260</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Marshall (1) <img src="http://i788.photobucket.com/albums/yy168/MBryant31958/Coins/400 US/0200 Large Cents/Draped Busts/S-132006-horz-vert.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Marshall (2) I just realized I never photographed my nicer S-132.
