<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 1050568, member: 66&quot;]On the 1827 I agree with Idhair O-113a.&nbsp; I believe the 1828 is O-117.&nbsp; I&#039;m having problems with the 1819 though.&nbsp; I can&#039;t get it to match up to anything.&nbsp; It should be easy because it has some very distinctive features.&nbsp; The obv appears to be an 1819/8.&nbsp; There are five overdate obv listedfor this year.&nbsp; Three of them have block 8&#039;s and two have fancy 8&#039;s (and these two dies are the ONLY fancy 8 dies for this year.).&nbsp; Yours is a fancy 8.&nbsp; That should make it obv 1 or obv 3.&nbsp; On obv 1 star 7 points at the upper half of the curl by the headband.&nbsp; On obv 3 it points ot the junction of the two curls by the head band.&nbsp; Yours seems to point at the front of the lower curl like Obv 2.&nbsp; But obv 2 has a block 8.</p><p><br /></p><p>Then there is the rev.&nbsp; Your coin has a tall slender 5 in 50.&nbsp; There are only three reverse with that style of 5, rev A, B, &amp; C.&nbsp; On rev A &amp; B the 5 leans heavily right like on your coin, and on C it is upright.&nbsp; On A the I in PLURIBUS is almost centered under the T.&nbsp; That doesn&#039;t match yours at all.&nbsp; That just leaves B.&nbsp; On B the I is below the right serif of the A.&nbsp; Yours isn&#039;t that far left.&nbsp; On yours it is under the left serif of the T. (As seen on Rev C!&nbsp; But on rev C the tip of the arrow feathers is over the upright of the 5.&nbsp; On yours it is definitely left of the upright.)&nbsp; So your rev most closely matches B, but B does not come paired with a fancy 8 obv.</p><p><br /></p><p>Can anyone else confirm my observations?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
