[QUOTE="Paddy54, post: 8048616, member: 19250"]That's definitely not whats in the slab...I cannot say anything negative as a human I make my share of mistakes esspecially when one is trying to do an attribution from a photo. But the 5 is is a small 5 to my eyes as well the C a large C. I believed that I had picked an 1858 002 the other week. From the photo it sure looked like there were items in the loops and the date placement looks spot on.... can you return? However the nature of this hobby is one that some days you cannot do no wrong, picking a great specimen, other days its like you're a YN not knowing or finding anything. But yes I can understand the frustration as a h 10 collector I've have heard more times then 100 ...how and the hell can you see anything on those little things? My reply the same as you can on a larger coin.... you look for what's going on, then do your homework... Sometimes you get it right.... other you back to being a picker.[/QUOTE]
