darcyrmt Valued Member Canada 202 Posts	Posted 09/13/2012 2:46 pm Wish I could answer your question as well, but could I ask how you are getting your pictures? Camera connected to microscope? Strong magnifying glass? (my loupe is only 10x, your pics look so much larger..) Report this Post to the Staff

t_y Pillar of the Community Canada 632 Posts	Posted 09/13/2012 11:36 pm The only thing I know about 1859 cents is that experts like to see the whole coin. Types are determined by more than one marker that us, not initiated, don't recognize. So, although your details are great, post a picture of each side of the coin for them. by the way, your English is great. don't worry. Report this Post to the Staff
nybird Valued Member United States 459 Posts	Posted 09/14/2012 09:50 am Your coin is well known, the die crack on the G in GRATIA is die defining. It is a Haxby PC59-76a..? Which is obverse 76a + some reverse... The question relates to which reverse it has. This obverse was paired with at least 4 different reverses. Here is a link or 2 to get you started. Based on the 9, it may be a worn P15b reverse http://www.vickycents.com/om-dc-g-ratia.html http://www.vickycents.com/obv-o76a.html Edited by nybird 09/14/2012 09:53 am Report this Post to the Staff
