[QUOTE="Jaelus, post: 2117397, member: 46237"]I attended the Whitman CoinExpo in Baltimore this weekend and had a great time. Here's my favorite pickup from the show, a Capped Bust 25C 1831 B-5 Large Letters, NGC AU55. Nice examples of any 1831 Large Letters are really tough to find compared to the plentiful Small Letters varieties, so I was thrilled to find one with vibrant color and great luster.

All numerals in the date were repunched, most obviously the 1s (large 1s repunched over small 1s). [IMG]http://i525.photobucket.com/albums/cc338/Mangoreej/Coins/1831_1s.png[/IMG][/QUOTE]
