Hello all,
Can anyone give me information on this piece?
I have heard they do exist, in round a round bust (versus pointed for the 64).
I know someone who has one, seen it with my own eyes.
It was slabbed a while ago, but not as an L.
He is about to re-submit it.
He said there is less than 10 known?

Never heard of that but I do know that at least two examples exist of an 1864L made of copper-nickel. All of them were previously thought to be bronze in composition.

It was just in a recent coin magazine, about the 63 L, not sure which mag tho, Coin World or ...?
I am going to see if I can get that issue. Someone else just told me about they saw it in a recent issue of something.

I will post what I can find.

You might be referring to the 1863 PT3 with L on Ribbon, although it has a narrow bust point. It shares the same reverse Die as does the 1864.
