KurtS Pillar of the Community United States 5318 Posts	Posted 12/14/2007 11:11 am Thanks! Yes...they punched the 9 too close to the design, and it also caused a small die break. Not bad for $15 on ebay. Edited by KurtS 12/14/2007 11:29 am Report this Post to the Staff
livingdinasaur Pillar of the Community United States 1571 Posts	Posted 12/14/2007 1:17 pm I was going to say, it looks like it might be a die break, but you beat me to it! Dick Report this Post to the Staff
Topher Pillar of the Community Canada 965 Posts	Posted 12/14/2007 2:34 pm My price guide lists this variety at $61.50, so nice find! Report this Post to the Staff
KurtS Pillar of the Community United States 5318 Posts	Posted 12/14/2007 2:46 pm Thanks...there is this Seattle-based dealer who doesn't seem to care about these varieties. I'm also waiting for what might be a 47 dot 25c, but since the photos were rather sketchy, I'll know for sure when it arrives. Update: it turns out, this coin is NOT a 47 dot. Oh well...no loss!

KurtS Pillar of the Community United States 5318 Posts	Posted 12/14/2007 6:56 pm Thanks Shafta--yes, if it's EF I'd also place it a bit higher. I'll know better upon arrival. Report this Post to the Staff
KurtS Pillar of the Community United States 5318 Posts	Posted 12/19/2007 8:07 pm Update: Now having the coin in hand, I see it's in better shape than the photos suggested. As there's some mint luster on the low points, I think it edges more towards EF. Report this Post to the Staff
