<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 920758, member: 66&quot;]If you are familiar with how this series looks you would see a LOT of errors in it.&nbsp; The bust is mishappen, the lettering font is wrong, the font of the date is wrong, the stars are too small, and NONE of the 1804 dollars had a reeded edge. (Class I coins have a crushed lettered edge from having the planchet lettered and then being struck in a plain close collar.&nbsp; The unique Class II coin has a plain edge.&nbsp; The Class III coins were struck in the plain close collar and then had the edges lettered AFTER striking.&nbsp; The class III coins are probably the examples of the unauthorized restriking of the 1804 dollar that got out in the late 1850&#039;s that the mint recovered from the buyers.&nbsp; Those coins were all Class II coins.&nbsp; later the edges were lettered and they were distributed by the Mints favorite coin dealers William Idler and Capt John Haseltine.&nbsp; The pedigrees of all of the Class III&nbsp; coins except one can be traced back to that dealership.&nbsp; The only one that can&#039;t is the Linderman coin that came from the Mint Directors own personal collection.)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
