[QUOTE="7Jags, post: 17478810, member: 78719"]This is a somewhat unloved series that garners little attention from most quarters it seems. I rather like it, and have gotten into a couple of bidding wars in the past over the scarcer dates in top condition. I dare say that some are downright rarities in those states. IMHO when considering the equivalent of MS 63 or better that the following dates are quite the challenge: 1848/7 1848/6 1854 1878 DRITTANIAR 1893 Jubilee Head possibly gem/ MS65 1869 Left off were the 1847 which may be unique and low grade with inscription and the 1862 and 1863 which seem to be much more available than the others up through 65 and above. Honorable mention in 65 and above is the 1882. Any others readers might suggest? Here is possibly the nicest 1878 DRITTANIAR you will see; I apologise in advance for photos that make the obverse look terrible. However it is ex-Spink SNC and graded MS64 by PCGS: [ATTACH=full]1535797[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1535796[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
