Hello.

I'm still quite a newbie to all this but I started collecting some of the old large pennies recently.

I was going though what I have and came across this

1882 one, However working off J&M list and a quick google search everything I see seams to list it as 1882 H only



There is no H mark that I can see.

Thanks Russ

Can you get a closer photo? There is a lot of wear on the top of the coin, it might still be there, just hard to see in this photo.

Lots of damage on this coin including where the H should be.
"Dipping" is not considered cleaning...

The way that the leaves are worn suggests that it was used for a different purpose and something was rolling on the leaves for a long time. Like as if a wheel was spinning on it until much was worn away.

Very strange wear pattern on it.

Here is another 1882 to compare it to. Yours has wear lines and rings not seen on a normally worn large cent.
