Far 6?

There something odd about the date. Far 6 maybe answer

 

Neither of the 1896's on the previous page is a "far 6". The 6's for 1896 were hand-punched into the working dies so that you have any number of positions for the 6. There is very close, close, near, norm, far, very far, extremely far and any of those descriptives plus added "rotated CW or CCW ot high or low. The accpeted coin that is called a "far 6" that was in Charlton is very far and is high and rotated slightly CW. Both the 1896's on the previous page are "relatively normal" and have no premium or collector interest.

 

I hope so, very nice.

 

There is a rare "medal orientation" of the 1871. The norm is "coinage".

 

Thanks Bill!
Just a odd looking coin.maybe damage.

 

I like the collection real nice

 

Canadian coins are becoming increasingly interesting. I just hope I can find one 1858 like this one.

 

I also collect the large One Cent coins. Nice collection you have. Steve

 

PL - 64 with a few spots forming...

 

what date type is this?

 

Can't find much and that's a shame cause I know I have some really old pennies, just can't find them. Oh well, I did find an encased cent and a cent in a bezel!

 

A cool 2 dollar coin

 

Some really good looking coins folks!

jello => I hope that you find some medicine with the right amount of kick (get well soon, my friend)

 

49ers => I'm assuming that you already know that 1996 was the first year of this 2 dollar coin, eh?
