<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 745390, member: 66"]Well I've looked at it and so far I'm still not convinced it's an M37.4-RR I will agree that the rev sure seems to be RR. ff.1 is similar but it doesn't match. It definitely isn't obv 37.10 the position of the first N and the bust proves that. But when you compare it to the 37.4-k.1 in the Stacks sale that you referenced you will see that the first fleuron under the point of the bust doesn't match. The fleuron on your coin is further under the bust. (More like on 37.12 or 37.13) On the Stacks coin the innermost point of the fleuron is pointing at the first epalat(?) while on your coin that point is past the first one and is pointing toward the second one. I don't know if the links will work but I'll try.</p><p><img src="http://img301.imageshack.us/img301/8796/044np.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://www.stacks.com/img-coin/AN62496885-oz.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>I also don't believe the two hair curls (below the ear and the one lower and right) match up.

The catalog says it's 37.4 but the written attribution on the coin doesn't look like 37.4 Looks more like .8 or .6 but the coin doesn't match either of those obverses.)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
