colonialjohn Pillar of the Community United States 1757 Posts	Posted 04/02/2014 1:03 pm HMMM ... must be asleep this morning ... good use of ANS-MANTIS. The 1723's are the most common ... then 1722 generally ... then 1724 as a whole are the most rare ... I would put a $50 reserve ... start it at $9.99. Let E-Bay do its thing ... list of course under US Colonials. Appears as an original VF from your pics. Only the pre-and post- patterns are rare. Few people collect these by varieties in the central core group of general issue pieces (1722-1724). I had one of the finest collections of Hibernias & Rosas - see Stacks Americana Sale (January, 2008). Good luck ...

JnECoins New Member United States 6 Posts	Posted 04/02/2014 2:50 pm I dont know what it is other then what I have learned here from my post. Harp on left of a 1724 is what threw me off about it I have a mint state or maybe proof from the mirrored look but it has a strang stamp very small on leaf I will post itin a lil while.
