I'm "familiar" with VAMs and other die varieties/marriages.. but do not know which overton number this is. If my research is correct, there is only 3-4 O numbers for this year? I guess it should be easy, yet I cannot find any sources that give the determining die markers. Thank you! Im not very good at taking whole coin pictures, if close-ups are needed, they are usually better than the whole coin photos Report this Post to the Staff

There are 23 varieties for the year, using two different sizes of zero in the date. Yours looks like the smaller, more common version, listing 18 Overtons. 1830 is one of the tougher years to attribute - differences are tiny, requiring exacting detail of the relationships between certain features. I came up empty-handed on my first run through the varieties; sometimes it takes a few trips through the book to attribute one of these. No biggie. I'm a night-shifter and just got up. I'll be awake all night. Report this Post to the Staff
