Hflirn Pillar of the Community United States 586 Posts	Posted 06/18/2014 02:02 am I took I don't know how many pictures and narrowed it down to these few. I know there are a few varieties for the 1883/2 Shield nickel so if this is perhaps the real thing which variety would it fall under. Thanks! Report this Post to the Staff

Hflirn Pillar of the Community United States 586 Posts	Posted 06/18/2014 07:02 am What I assume is a two, seems to be more out there in the open than the varieties I found, with pictures. I would like to thank shieldnickels.net though if that kind of thing is permitted. Helped. I feel that this may be an early die state which unfortunately doesn't help me on this variety from what I've read so far. Still digging in though. Report this Post to the Staff

Waxemm Valued Member United States 450 Posts	Posted 06/18/2014 09:43 am The 2 is way to prominent to be a 1883/2. Quote: 1882 heavy 2 Is the heavy 2 a re-punched 2, or just from die chipping? Edited by Waxemm 06/18/2014 09:43 am Report this Post to the Staff
