Have you ever taken a close look at your coins? A really good close look? I was looking over some of my coins which I have not had TrueViewed yet and broke out my 10X loupe and took my 1834 Capped Bust quarter and saw something a little peculiar. I opened up my CherryPickers Guide and saw that there was a variety for the 1834 Quarter...and this was it! Unattributed, but the RPL (Repunched Letter(s)) FS-901 B-1 variety nonetheless. I have been trying to put together a 7070 Type set Cherrypicker (variety) style and almost wrote the Bust Quarter off.

Sometimes you do not see the forest because of the trees.

The PUP (Pick Up Point) is "OF AMERICA" and the lack of period after the "C" in 25C

In this case, confronted with a pleasing type coin, the forest, you didn't spot that peculiar tree, the error. The same thing happened to me with this variety a few years ago.
