steven R New Member United States 4 Posts	Posted 03/23/2013 10:10 am Hi: Name is Steve. New here and a new on the coin scene. Am loving it but just starting to learn and collect. I have been doing research on this coin and wondering if it is a 1812/11 overdate, O-101. The A in states and the M in UNUM seem to line up. The eight seems like a large 8. I am to new to be able to tell. Would love some help! Sure this has been a topic discussed many times before. Hope the pix are good enough. Best to all, Steve Report this Post to the Staff

steven R New Member United States 4 Posts	Posted 03/23/2013 10:49 am HI: Hope this closeup of date works. If not will take another pic. What is it about the stars? Haven't read anything defining stars. Wow, really appreciate all the responses! Thanks all! Steve Report this Post to the Staff
amida17 Pillar of the Community United States 4897 Posts	Posted 03/23/2013 10:54 am Close up of AM on reverse would help but I am Thinking O-104. Are bottom of AM seperated and even? Report this Post to the Staff

amida17 Pillar of the Community United States 4897 Posts	Posted 03/23/2013 11:10 am I'm gonna stick with O-104 (until I get corrected ). Not the 12/11. Very nice Bustie! Report this Post to the Staff

TreasHunt Pillar of the Community United States 2540 Posts	Posted 04/01/2013 06:49 am Not a 104. It is an O-108. Position of the 1 vs the 8 in date, plus the 2 vs the drapery. Also, the AM close & the CA nearly touches. Report this Post to the Staff
