edweather Pillar of the Community United States 7375 Posts	Posted 08/25/2014 11:23 am With free shipping seemed like a prety good deal. Not sure what the MPD is in this case. I know it stands for misplaced date, but not sure how the date is misplaced on this one. http://www.ebay.com/itm/1897-1C-MPD...p=true&rt=nc Report this Post to the Staff

edweather Pillar of the Community United States 7375 Posts	Posted 08/25/2014 12:56 pm PCGS lists the '1 in neck' and the 'MPD FS-401 S-1 (FS-011.5)' as a separate varieties Edited by edweather 08/25/2014 4:42 pm Report this Post to the Staff
SsuperDdave Moderator United States 23522 Posts	Posted 08/25/2014 6:33 pm The misplaced "1" is plainly visible in the auction images, using the mouseover blowup. That's rather nicely bought for the price of a case of beer. Report this Post to the Staff
edweather Pillar of the Community United States 7375 Posts	Posted 08/25/2014 6:48 pm Yes I can see the 1 which is plainly visible. My question is about when you go to the PCGS pricelist and hit the dropdown under the 1897, it shows 2 (the last 2 of 3 on the list) different varieties with 1 in the neck. The $ values for the various grades on both of them are about the same. Maybe I'm splitting hairs, but PCGS definitely describes 2 different varieties with the 1 in the neck.

That's odd. The Registry only has a place for one variety. Report this Post to the Staff
52Raymo Pillar of the Community United States 8516 Posts	Posted 08/25/2014 10:54 pm There are two varieties...the S1 and S14. The S14 is also a one in the neck but doesn't stick out as far. One I really want ! Oregon coin geek.....* GO BEAVS ! ! ! * Report this Post to the Staff
