Question About Charlton And Haxby 1859 9/9 Large Cent Tough Varieties

That's a nice one to find collector67. Look for a forked end of the stem of leaf 9 where it joins the leaf. That should confirm it.

Yep. That's the 65a4. Nice condition too!

Don, I'm thinking it is 54a1 (54a+J13b). I think I can see the die cracks at leaves 10 and 11. On the obverse, the top of the C of CANADA looks like it has the triple punching like the 54a. Planchet flaws make that one a difficult attributon.

Here's a few more that are in the Dp9 1-5 listing in Charlton book and I know some of you consider them to be common coins to find.
These first three I found hard to find in any decent condition.
The Dp9 #1 I agree are common but in a high grade are costly as Devec has mentioned.

I find a lot of collectors get the Dp9 #4 mixed up with others so the keys to look for is the 5 and where the die crack on leaf 7 is located

Very nice and tough examples..Thanks..!!..




Here is an interesting flaw...my fiber or wood addition to the RP 9's here..

PC59-481..dies 48 + J7

The 8 and 5 and the 9 and the "O" are repunched in this fractured example..and the rim crack runs far around the edge.

I wonder if the loop of that 9 has a piece stuck in it..?

..and..

I wonder how much more fiber is tucked inside that cent..?

Thought I would show my 20a2 as it would slot in the middle VF30

Thanks Viper and others for all the compliments on my collection of 59's it takes time and a bit of knowledge helps when searching to find some varieties I'm still looking like most of us for a few.

Yes nice coin Don did you find it in your home land or e bay
