Is it an 1888/7? 2. Is the dot below the bust considered an error? 3. What should I list as the grade? Grateful for any help. Charlene Report this Post to the Staff

allcoinsnewbie Valued Member United States 170 Posts	Posted 12/31/2013 1:05 pm Thank you for that. Does the down stroke showing carry a premium? Trying to squeeze everything I can out of this coin. LOL Report this Post to the Staff
Battersea Dogs Home New Member United Kingdom 34 Posts	Posted 12/31/2013 3:02 pm No premium for that as the vast majority are 8 over 7. Any premium is for the straight 8 without the underlying 7. They are much less common - less than 10% at a guess. Report this Post to the Staff
