fortcollins Pillar of the Community United States 3728 Posts	Posted Today 2H 2M ago I agree that this appears to be a tooled 1858. In addition to what others have noted, the reverse die on your coin appears to match Reverse Die "C" from 1858. That die was matched with 1858 Obverse Die 2, with a date slightly sloping downward from left to right. Your coin's reverse die has a die crack from the rim to the lower serif of the "C" in AMERICA and very lightly continuing to the eagle's left wing (our visual right). That appears to match 1858 reverse die "C." I emphasize "appears" because of the wear on your coin. That obviously isn't the news any of us ever want to hear. It looks to be correct, though.

Antares New Member United States 6 Posts	Posted Today 15M ago Yes -- I can see what you are talking about and it all makes sense. I'm going to set this one aside for the time being until I can get it in front of someone trustworthy who knows more than me and I can make a decision from there. You have all been great -- I really appreciate all of your input -- it's been really helpful, even if it isn't the best news. Nonetheless it's better to know what the situation is. Thank you!
