zxcccxz Pillar of the Community Canada 5417 Posts	Posted 02/27/2015 11:05 pm My local dealer currently has one for sale in F. Got to look at it the other day, rarity aside, I couldn't bring myself to drop 2.5K on a coin that is slightly different from regular 1858 at 30x the price. Although, those are some really nice coins you guys got there Report this Post to the Staff
colonialtokens Pillar of the Community United States 840 Posts	Posted 02/27/2015 11:11 pm Before putting up good money, ensure it is certified and has the three diagnostic reverse die-cracks. p.s. he is wanting top dollar at that price, but they are difficult to obtain. doug Report this Post to the Staff

colonialtokens Pillar of the Community United States 840 Posts	Posted 02/28/2015 6:49 pm A horizontal Die-Crack from the leaf to rim at 9 o'clock. A vertical Die-Crack is from near the upper right edge of the Crown to the rim. A long somewhat vertical (diagonal) Die Crack extends across the mid-section of the reverse. doug Report this Post to the Staff
BoroLeColon New Member Canada 49 Posts	Posted 02/28/2015 7:31 pm Thanks for that. The only I could find/see was the left die crack. No trace of the others. Mine is low grade. For me, where I saw that it was, was of course the 8/5 but when I had it in hand the A of Canada. Report this Post to the Staff
canadian-varieties Pillar of the Community Canada 1442 Posts	Posted 02/28/2015 11:07 pm Boro...D/D in DEI and A/A in CANADA...There is only one die pair for the 1858/1558. That being said, the D/D in DEI and A/A in CANADA also shows up WITHOUT the 1858/1558. It is a SEPARATE variety. Report this Post to the Staff
BoroLeColon New Member Canada 49 Posts	Posted 03/01/2015 02:46 am Wow you are right. I read it but I forgot! It was saying that is it interesting that the 1858/1558 has two different dies. Obverse and reverse... Thanks for helping me remember that rather important part. So how many coins would it possible to have for one single die? Report this Post to the Staff
