[QUOTE="Paddy54, post: 3068830, member: 19250"]Even thought there is still listed an 1861 1/0 variety it has been refuted! So actually the variety does not exist! Your coin looks to be Au from the image provided, In the future you need to post both the obv. & rev. When asking for advice. The coin may have been dipped however from the image one could not tell for sure based on the photo,or if the dark spots are indeed carbon spots! Carbon spots are found on copper and copper nickel coins more so then silver ones. For the 1861 h-10 there are 3 Valentine types since you haven't posted the rev. I am not able to give you the correct Valentine number my best "guess" from the image is a V-2 . There are also 2 1861 RPD 's however again your photo makes it hard to even guess on which one it could be....from date placement The 002 looks possible but not certain. There are 3 ddo's for this date however again from your photo I cannot determine any doubling. If you can post better images I will check back to give you a more definitive answer to your specimen. Please remove the coin from the flip when imaging.[/QUOTE]
