T-BOP Rest in Peace United States 18456 Posts	Posted 07/13/2016 1:34 pm Yes I did . The main difference Is the 4 in the date placed wrong compared to other 1834's . Report this Post to the Staff

Someone with the definitive CBH book could specify the die variety (or will need the reverse to specify the die marriage). I do CBQ's and the same situation occurs often AND is a die marker.

I thought the bust itself was off compared to others but I do not have much exposure to the 25c issues. Report this Post to the Staff
