edweather Pillar of the Community United States 7375 Posts	Posted 01/28/2015 2:25 pm I've yet to have the pleasure of attributing an 1847. Nice buy. Report this Post to the Staff
Celticsoul Pillar of the Community United States 1566 Posts	Posted 01/28/2015 9:35 pm Sorry I think it's an N-4. I'm not seeing the reverse crack that is diagnostic of N-27. N-4 and N-27 have the same obverse die and I'm not seeing a mid to late die state here. Although I've been known to be wrong before..... Fantastic price though!

scottk Pillar of the Community United States 767 Posts	Posted 01/28/2015 9:37 pm VG 10. The leaves surprisingly are still a little sharp. Report this Post to the Staff
jerryc39 Pillar of the Community United States 3168 Posts	Posted 01/28/2015 11:11 pm both the n4 and 27 seem to have reverse cracks on them in some die states but I could not see any on this coins reverse, the n27 has a small point up on the n in one I think see. the n4 is supposed to have a point going downward on left serif of n in cent. could not see it on this coin so I am not sure of n4 versus n27. n4 is R3 Edited by jerryc39 01/28/2015 11:12 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Celticsoul Pillar of the Community United States 1566 Posts	Posted 01/28/2015 11:18 pm What book are you using to attribute? Just out of curiosity. I usually stick to Newcomb's work. Report this Post to the Staff
