paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 12/06/2015 12:09 pm Very well worn, but very inexpensive, 1803 Draped Bust, S-263, late die state. Cud under date and multiple die breaks. I've now got 3 different varieties of 1803, only 10 or 15 to go My "eyeball grade" is Fair; what does CCF think? Down to Poor, or up to AG3? I am adding two separate pictures with edited markers to show die break lines and the date Cud. The reverse picture has enhanced contrast (40%.) Sometimes with well worn early coppers, Photoshop can be useful in finding and identifying die diagnostics that have been worn away or are buried within corrosion.
