Coinguy1986 Valued Member United States 305 Posts	Posted 11/09/2015 6:33 pm Hey guys I recently purchased this 1856 large cent and it does have some light damage but I'm curious if this is a slanted 5 or possibly one of the varities? I really am ignorant when it comes to these , this is the first one I've owned but I'm fairly sure I remember reading that there are several varities of this date !! Report this Post to the Staff

Is this something that's earned For me the easiest way is First use the reply to topic button, not the quick reply. Copy and paste the text you want to quote. Highlight the text you just pasted, and click the quote button (in the Format media section) When you click that button it will put the proper delimiters on the text.
