<p>[QUOTE="mark_h, post: 1958265, member: 3726"]I really think you need to invest the money in a good set of reference material. Not only do you need to purchase it, but then you need to read it. Attributing some of the early copper(even bust half coinage) can be complicated. They have pointed to the EAC site with a lot of good material for copper. It is the only way you can identify some of the rarer varieties. If not there are a lot of copper heads that will cherry pick your inventory. While there is nothing wrong with that in some cases it could be costly as mentioned. My local shop does not always do that - so they can be cherry picked and they even encourage it. I keep hoping they get an 1834 N-5 I can cherry pick on them. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
