OldSkoolMadSkilz Pillar of the Community United States 2077 Posts	Posted 07/02/2012 3:11 pm Going through my collection and finding all sorts of overdates I didn't know I had. I think I found an 1824 N-5! Report this Post to the Staff

OldSkoolMadSkilz Pillar of the Community United States 2077 Posts	Posted 07/02/2012 5:08 pm KK, is it still considered an overdate even if the overdate is not visible? This is a rare one, correct? Report this Post to the Staff

OldSkoolMadSkilz Pillar of the Community United States 2077 Posts	Posted 07/02/2012 5:20 pm Thanks. I've been going through all my LCs. Found a few scarce, but this is the first rare one. These matron heads are a lot easier to do than the braided hair. I think the difference on some of those are thinks like the shape of the smile. Spent an hour trying to figure out whether I had a medium date 46 and I'm still not sure. Think I have two small and two tall. Report this Post to the Staff

Gyrene7483 Pillar of the Community United States 1704 Posts	Posted 07/03/2012 11:15 am Is there a possibility that this piece has a previously unknown obverse type for the N-5 reverse? Just asking, recently there have been other significant varieties found that have somehow eluded the variety specialists over the years. Is the N-5 variety valuable enough to warranty submitting it for attribution and authentication? If so, then the cost of having it authenticated would be well worth having it done.

OldSkoolMadSkilz Pillar of the Community United States 2077 Posts	Posted 07/03/2012 7:22 pm I don't slab my coins because I like them in an album. However, this isn't my only 1824, so I'd consider submitting it. If this is an N-5, any guess as to what it's worth? Report this Post to the Staff
