Coin Scavenger Valued Member Canada 444 Posts	Posted 10/09/2015 01:59 am This coin was hiding right under my nose. I've looked over boxes of large cents looking for varieties, and this one was in my large cent binder. I need help from the knowledgeable 1859 crew. Does this coin have doubling from being repunched or is the doubling from an over used die? I believe the 8 is a repunched verity, am I correct? Is this a common pair of dies? Please add any information or opinions. Grade? Thanks in advance. Report this Post to the Staff

Coin Scavenger Valued Member Canada 444 Posts	Posted 10/09/2015 10:06 pm Decided to look over the old coin binder to see if anything else was unusual, and this coin was 2 2x2s over. I believe it to be a C1 over C2 double die. The coin was marked as a triple N. The coins have been in this binder longer then the variations have been known, I would imagine.

DEVLEC Pillar of the Community Canada 3234 Posts	Posted 10/10/2015 09:23 am I still mess these up at times... ..but I see an OC1a over OC1 on that 81.. and nice doubling in the CAN of Canada, and nice doubling in ICT RIA of Victoria, and nice doubling in the N of Regina. So all in all a great keeper !! Report this Post to the Staff
Coin Scavenger Valued Member Canada 444 Posts	Posted 10/10/2015 10:42 am Right, OC 1 / OC 2 was the 1882. I found examples of this coin in my Charlton, listed as OC1/OC1 DD. I'm guessing it to be VF. Report this Post to the Staff
