Having Trouble attributing this. I have been using Goldberg auctions. But

1847-Large-Cent-Attribution-N.?

1847-Large-Cent-Attribution-N.?The late dates are just too tough!

Anybody have any ideas?

'47 is a tough year - there are 43 different N numbers! Do any die markers jump out at you on this one?

None whatsoever! I can't identify any breaks or major die markers. The denticle pointing to star 2 looks lengthy but also could just be from damage

others would disagree with me here, but I'll give you my 2 cents, which is worth a lot less than this cent! If a large cent doesn't have a die marker, I don't worry about which N-number it is, because many of them without cuds/breaks/distinctive markers don't carry a premium. A much different story with AU/MS examples though! - I'll sit down for hours figuring out where all the berries on the reverse point to in order to figure it out.

I actually agree with you. That's what I do. If no identifying characteristics, I dont worry, just a grade.

Conder, What makes you think N.13? Just trying to see what else you may be seeing.

Point of the bust is between the left edge of the upright and the left edge of the topof the 1. That is position 6 in Grellman. The point of the curl is over the center of the right side of the 8. That is position 6 in Grellman. That has it down to N-11,13,21,22,23,24,and 32. They only one of those that does NOT have the 4 touching the curl above it is N-13.
