RK55 Pillar of the Community United States 2189 Posts	Posted 10/27/2016 2:38 pm This is my first Mass Cent, I could use opinions on grade and the Ryder variety. I think it grades at F-12? Ryder#, I am clueless. it has the closed S's but the arrows in relation to the wing are throwing me off. New Purchase, Pics are sellers. all I have to go on. Thanks for any help!

bpoc1 Rest in Peace United States 4078 Posts	Posted 10/27/2016 4:21 pm These Massachusetts coins are my downfall.( I'm from Worcester) I wish I could tell you RK55, about your coin. Those in the know will ask for better pictures if you buy the coin. Keep us informed. Report this Post to the Staff
RK55 Pillar of the Community United States 2189 Posts	Posted 10/27/2016 5:03 pm Thanks bpoc1, we are practically neighbors. The pics do enlarge pretty nicely when they are clicked on here in the topic so I am hoping that will at least give one of the experts a shot at the variety. Looks like Perkins dies, maybe a Ryder 1-D? Edited by RK55 10/27/2016 5:13 pm Report this Post to the Staff

RK55 Pillar of the Community United States 2189 Posts	Posted 10/27/2016 6:36 pm I guess it's not 1-D...this coin has a dot after Massachusetts. Back to the drawing board. Hopefully someone can nail it. Report this Post to the Staff
