srs77 Pillar of the Community United States 3169 Posts	Posted 12/04/2015 11:37 pm Picked up this nice 1813 CBH from Connor of our community. Very happy with my purchase but I am hoping for confirmation on the Overton Variety. I believe this one to be O-110. The clashing on the obverse seems to be tell tale so I'm putting it out there to the CBH experts. Thanks for looking! Thanks Connor! Report this Post to the Staff

DoubleEagle20 Pillar of the Community United States 1748 Posts	Posted 12/05/2015 12:44 am I'd say it's an o.109, with potential of being an o.109a. You need a ruler in millimeters. Is the date about 9.75 mm across? Edited by DoubleEagle20 12/05/2015 12:53 am Report this Post to the Staff

Had the coin been in a higher grade(VF or better) it would have been much easier to spot other differences. Report this Post to the Staff
