bandsdean Pillar of the Community United States 2125 Posts	Posted 10/26/2018 11:29 pm I'm stumped. I know I must be missing something obvious as there are only 3 known combos for this date. I'm thinking the obvious outcome is that it may be fake. Look at the way the "E" is cut in the word "ONE". I always go to Goldberg Coins and Heritage and view their pics for 1832 but couldn't find a match with N-1,2 or 3. I just bought it and is in the mail. What say all of you Large Cent masters? Thanks!
