numismo Rest in Peace United States 3039 Posts	Posted 02/01/2012 9:34 pm Is this a Type 2? These aren't in my comfort zone. I tried on the pix. Like taking a picture of a mirror. Report this Post to the Staff

TNG Bedrock of the Community United States 10284 Posts	Posted 02/01/2012 9:49 pm I think it is a type 2 ( the better one ) http://koinpro.tripod.com/Articles/...81STypes.htm Report this Post to the Staff
numismo Rest in Peace United States 3039 Posts	Posted 02/02/2012 08:29 am Thanks NickelGuy. Sure looks like it to me(hopefully.)More rounded loops and bulbous serifs seem to match up to those pictured on Ken Potter's site. Other opinions? Report this Post to the Staff
numismo Rest in Peace United States 3039 Posts	Posted 02/02/2012 7:39 pm I was hoping for a few more replies. I really don't know these coins too well. Any opinions will be appreciated. Report this Post to the Staff
wquinn Pillar of the Community United States 2295 Posts	Posted 02/02/2012 7:59 pm I think it is the type 2 also: http://www.smalldollars.com/dollar/page29.html It shows the large, bulb like, serifs. Do you have the rest of the proof set or just the coin? Report this Post to the Staff

Morgans Dad Pillar of the Community United States 5616 Posts	Posted 02/03/2012 10:04 pm I would totally agree, this is a sweet looking example of the "CRISPER" S mint mark, AKA the type 2.......In hand a very nice looking coin.....Mike Report this Post to the Staff
numismo Rest in Peace United States 3039 Posts	Posted 02/03/2012 11:36 pm Thanks Mike and all who responded. Now to decide if this is worth slabbing. It should come back a high MS proof. Report this Post to the Staff

Drsandman2 Pillar of the Community United States 1374 Posts	Posted 02/04/2012 9:02 pm That is a great piece! And the proof type 2 is what I "picked" in my type set as a SB example. :D Report this Post to the Staff

numismo Rest in Peace United States 3039 Posts	Posted 02/07/2012 3:14 pm We all should have bought lotsa items 30 years ago when they were cheaper. Although from what I've seen, baseball cards & stamps are down from back then. Report this Post to the Staff
