14ers Valued Member United States 230 Posts	Posted 10/13/2012 12:14 am Bought an 1877 Philly quarter off ebay and it arrived today. I expected it to be VF-25 to VF-30 range and suspected it to be well cleaned. I think I was pretty close in both those cases. But then the surprise. A little CC under the eagle! Then another surprise with an even closer look. Looks like the trace of the bottom of a 77 under the 1877. I don't know much about CC's. Can anyone tell me anything about what looks like an overdate or repunched date? Report this Post to the Staff

acloco Pillar of the Community United States 3540 Posts	Posted 10/13/2012 12:44 am Page 135 of the 4th edition Cherry Picker's Guide suggests this is FS-25-1877CC-301 - Briggs Obv 2, repunched date. Cherry Pickers Guide lists the variety value as F-12 = $75, VF-20 = $100, EF-40 = $150 Your picture of the date is about as close to the picture in the book as it gets. No shadow above the date in the book though. Comments section advises "A second, very similar RPD is also known for this date." Report this Post to the Staff

Don't have the CP guides on hand... Certainly cleaned, maybe even corroded. Surface is very gnarly, unless that is your camera. Thanks for sharing, haven't noticed this variety.
