Metalman Pillar of the Community United States 7123 Posts	Posted 09/06/2005 10:47 pm Hi Carl Directly below the ribbon ,in the center there is a star, to the right is an A,, and to the left, is some type of symbol, looks like a man wearing a sombrero ? or an anchor or something like that ? I think the coin was made in paris, I found some other coins , just not this particular one with the same markings, and if I remember right it was paris ? Thanks for the time you spending on this !!!

Good morning Rick, The star is for the time 1830-1842, first sighn for your date, the mintmark A is Paris indead, the Anchor the paris mintmark for that date. The coin should be km 741.1, with a market faleu (in my catalog, who is not the newest) fine 5,--, VF 10,--, XF 25.--, UNC 90.-- Of cource no thanks are needed Rick, I have to get my hits to be a pillar some day as well[:p] Greetings, Carl Report this Post to the Staff
