TJsCoins Pillar of the Community United States 3229 Posts	Posted 07/09/2014 01:40 am Here is a 1795 LC I just picked up. It is 9.5 grams. 28.5 mm's and passes the ring test. It is in rough shape for sure. I think it is an S-78. I believe it is real but would like some CCF opinions:) Report this Post to the Staff

GERMANICVS Pillar of the Community Germany 1856 Posts	Posted 07/10/2014 12:53 pm Looks good to me too, and an S-78. It does seem a little lite weight at 9,5 g, given the nominal was 10,89. This may be due to the corrosion, though. Report this Post to the Staff
