Smallcentguy Pillar of the Community Canada 1984 Posts	Posted 07/19/2013 9:51 pm I picked up a Whitman cent collection recently and I think I may have picked up a couple of decent varieties. The 1894 photographs well but I had a hard time with the 1859. There is some nice doubling on all three horizontal parts of the 5. Does this qualify it as a repunched 5? Any views appreciated. The 1894: The 1859: Here is another try on the 1859. I think I see a sign of the 5 on the vertical part of the numeral. Edited by Smallcentguy 07/20/2013 1:27 pm Report this Post to the Staff

nybird Valued Member United States 459 Posts	Posted 07/20/2013 4:43 pm Based on the what looks like a die crack at leaf 3 and 6 your 1859 cent reverse might be Haxby P19. That means the coin might be either Haxby PC59-801 or PC59-80a1. Better photos and an obverse photo would help. Here is a link for the P19 reverse http://www.vickycents.com/rev-p19.html ed Report this Post to the Staff
