I going over a bunch of stuff here is a photo of one of my 1866 Indian cents "this is a strong over date" or re-punched number. It is not listed in the cherry-pickers guild. I do not own a Snow guild can someone help me on it.

I assume you mean 1886 not 1866. I think this Type 1 (gap between lower hair curl & ribbon, I could be more sure if I could see where the last feather points) I think this an S-1 (1-star). Other attribution which would help, but don't show on your photo are a rim Cud from 9:00-12:30. On reverse, olive leaf and shield points connect to denticles, full die clash on obverse portrait.

I'm not an expert on this, so I am not 100% positive, but I believe this is the best match from Snow's attribution guide.

Sorry about that you are correct it's a 1886
Here are full frame shots of both sides.
Thanks again


NOTE the line across the obverse is some type of break or real strange lamination. It is not caused be something crimping the coin it runs under a few letters and over one as well

This is definitely an 1886 Type 1 (last feather aimed between I&C) Snow has 8 eight varieties listed for this type. He doesn't have pictures for all of them. None of the varieties carries more than 2 stars (As I said before S-1 has 1-star) The olive leaf and shield points are connected to the denticles., and that does look like a die crack on the obverse. I don't see the rim Cud but the picture is blurry. I still say it is an S-1. Its the best match until someone with a little more knowledge tells me different.Either way it does not add much of a premium to the value of the coin.

I agree, S1. You can see some of the Longacre lines in the "A" in the first picture. This variety also has a full die clash of the obverse portrait on the reverse. I can't tell from the pictures, but see if there is clashing on the reverse.

no clash but a second small break running from the center point of the shield into the denticels and the line on the obverse I as 99.8% sure its a die fracture.
