    I have a question and would like to have others opinion about my 1818 quarter.
    I have long wondered if this was a 1818/5,
    It is barely detectable ,so i went to several
    auction sites to compare enlarged pictures of
    certified 1818/5 quarters with mine
    I found one with the same rev die cracks as mine.
    On this one,I did see the remains of a 5 under the 8,
    but i cant see that on my obv.
    Do you think it is possible for my quarter to have the same
    rev die crack as a 1818/5 but not have the obv 5 under the 8?
    or can I assume it is an 1818/5 just by the reverse?
    Hope these pix come out OK,if anyone can enlarge them enough
    can you tell me if it is an 8/5.Can you see whats going on with my 8?
    Really appreciate your opinions,
    thanks guys

    The 1st pair of coins are
    certified,
    the 2nd, pair are mine.

    I just saw a slabbed 18/5 this weekend, and I couldn't see the 5 either.
