These three ugly sisters were recently on To Tell The Truth. Can you tell me which of these three ugly sisters has a secret, and is really a tougher variety cent? Pics aren't great, but probably an easy one for some of you. Variety markers are definitely visible.

mod please move to the Variety forum if you think it would be better....just figured it would get more eyeballs here.

The 1829 looks like N-5 which is an R3+. I'm not even going to try to tackle the braided hairs with those pictures, plus in those conditions even if they are rare, they aren't going to bring a premium. The 1829 has a shot at being decent though.

I'm with the 1829 as well - Medium letters vs. Large letters.

OK, I thought there would be a couple of additional panel members, but here are the results. You both got it. I was looking for 1829 Medium Letters, but EFL went above and attributed the N-5. The 1829 Medium Letters is pretty easily identifiable by the recut A's on the reverse. I'll sell the other 2 for about $10, which means I paid about $25 for the 1829 N-5. I'll put it in the book and begin looking for an upgrade

Yeah, either on the window sill, or might try cooking it in a Taco Bell napkin up in my attic
