Mullen Valued Member United States 167 Posts	Posted 02/12/2015 11:41 pm If it was a regular 79-s I dont think it was a good price. But considering it is a reverse 78 you did pretty good. Did you even know it was reverse 78? Be honest... Report this Post to the Staff

dave700x Rest in Peace United States 10625 Posts	Posted 02/13/2015 09:52 am Not a bad example of an 79 S rev. 78. There are some real duds out there that people are calling MS and asking double what you paid for this. PS, I think you may be pleasantly surprised when you get this one in hand as the images look like scans. Report this Post to the Staff

Rollsearcher37 Pillar of the Community United States 1295 Posts	Posted 02/13/2015 10:06 pm Looks AU-58-ish to my eye; not sure about any possible cleaning or dipping. The pictures are a bit wonky, so I reserve judgement for when you have the coin in hand and can post some better pics. Report this Post to the Staff
Celticsoul Pillar of the Community United States 1566 Posts	Posted 02/14/2015 07:13 am AU-55 possibly dipped but it just might be the poor photos. Wait to see what it looks like in hand. Report this Post to the Staff
1916 D Merc Valued Member United States 459 Posts	Posted 02/14/2015 11:59 pm Yeah I was just browsing Morgans on ebay and I looked at Numismedia for an 1879 and saw the 1879 S Reverse of 78 values and decided I'd try to find one that wasn't ID'd as so. I stumbled upon this gem and thought "Why not?" I was on the fence with the pictures but I'll wait to see how it looks in hand. Report this Post to the Staff
