Ningcumpoop Valued Member Canada 220 Posts	Posted 07/20/2013 12:35 am I could use some help with the C1 and C1a varieties of 1882 H large cents. Charlton lists the C1 obverse as having a single serif N in Canada and C1a as having a double serif N...I have four pics here: 1. C1 with Single Serif N 2. C1 with Double Serif N? Is this correct or is this something else? 3. C1a with Double Serif N = normal 4. C1a with Single Serif N? Please correct me if it is something else. Any help would be appreciated.....thanks Report this Post to the Staff

While all are fairly easy to find, the ones a bit scarcer are: - Obv 1 Full serif & D/C in Regina - Obv 1a Single serif Then you also have the Obv 2/1a's (3 different dies for the 2/1a's).

Ningcumpoop Valued Member Canada 220 Posts	Posted 07/20/2013 01:35 am Thanks, I'm not sure what to look for when looking for 2/1a's. Is there a variety book that would really break down all the differences? Charlton shows only C1, C1a, C1a/C1, C2, C2/C1, and C2/C1 DD. Report this Post to the Staff

C1 dies have single serif N's, but so do a few C1a's. http://www.victoriancent.com 2011 & 2025 Fred Bowman Award Winner, 2020 J. Douglas Ferguson Award Winner, & 2022 Paul Fiocca Award Winner.
