SPP,
Please, again, read my OP,(not just fly over it) and please, try not to be a selective reader.
I think my question is very clear. And, I believe that I posted it in the correct forum. If NOT, sorry, perhaps I made a mistake? then please, as the moderator, move it to right forum, or the one YOU think it should be in. Thank you.

And, I have no doubt that YOU know why I worded it the way I did.
However, that does not mean others also do know, but maybe they would like to know.
Thank YOU for not disclosing it... yet.

But, will YOU spoil other collectors and forum members learning curve because, just maybe in your opinion, I made a mistake and posted in the wrong forum?
Did I? well, I am sorry if I did....
Note: so far nobody really caught on. except YOU.

right?
OH, btw, this coin issue was the subject of another topic not too long ago.

I think SPP was just asking a simple question and clarifying the meaning of what you were asking. I would agree that there are some mixed signals in your original post.
As I read it you are asking what variety ICCS designated it as? The only possible answer I can think of is that ICCS said it was an Obverse #1?

NO, I simply asked what ICCS would put on the certificate.
a huge difference, as my question was very clear. It is just that it is very easy to simply fly over and jump to a conclusion.
would not be the first time. WHY, beats me.
Notice please, now that hints came up,.... suddenly there was more than a grade in the replies.
But most of you had to get a hint first...
so, are you all going to challenge my other post about the NFL 50 cents? maybe it is also in the wrong section? who relly cares?/ point made?
Go ahead.... you most likely will all loose on that one. And it is soooooo simple.
but I bet there will be one or two spoilers...

SPP, if I stepped on your tows, I am sorry
can you ever forgive me?

Pacific and ZX...
you are both right.
BUT how many others would have known?
NOW, you two and SPP are excluded!!
how do you positively identify a 1871 quarter to be obv 2 or obv 1?

Looking at her brow I agree with the above this is a P1. Not high or angled enough to be a P2.

Those two were the only markers in my Coins of Canada. Might be more but it's not listed.

The I in gratia points between the denticles OBV-1
The I points to a denticle OBV-2

You have to remember that everyone, and that includes all CCF membership, often skims over the topics of all the forums and selectively read the ones that catch their eye.

The title of this thread is what brought my attention to it in the first place.

Perhaps next time, use "ICCS comment" instead of "ICCS grading" Grading is a specific term, and it is irrelevant of any variety.

It is you, who is inferring more than necessary here. Why don't you try to read such questions as they are, simple as that? There was nothing personal or confrontational about my question, I simply saw a conflict between the title of the thread (grading) and its content (variety) - I was actually hoping you would edit your thread title in response to my post (but you didn't, so I did that for you).

I'm not sure what your problem is, 47P7, but there is no call for this kind of attitude. Kindly check how you speak to other members, whether they are moderators or not.
