thedollarman Pillar of the Community Canada 4911 Posts	Posted 01/14/2016 5:55 pm a strong VF example, could have enough detail for a VF 30 but it is IMO a details coin,the scratch on vicki is too deep and long to ignore. Feel free to call me Will. Report this Post to the Staff

colonialtokens Pillar of the Community United States 840 Posts	Posted 01/14/2016 10:25 pm The reverse appears to be Haxby J8, but from the photo provided, I can not confirm the obverse. If the reverse is a 491, you have a rather common variety. I also concur with VF 20. doug Report this Post to the Staff
purelywasted Pillar of the Community Canada 1505 Posts	Posted 01/15/2016 7:52 pm Thanks Doug, I am starting to learn the 1859 classification system. For the OBV, do you need a better picture of a certain portion? Report this Post to the Staff
colonialtokens Pillar of the Community United States 840 Posts	Posted 01/15/2016 9:01 pm Open the Reverse J8. Click on the Obverse thread associated with J8. Compare your obverse to the photos provided. One marker I remember (without returning to the thread) concerns the cloven left-end of the base of the E in DEI. (On your photo this area had too much crud to confirm.) Verify the other markers. If congruent, Obverse 491, Reverse J8. A typo in my previous thread. Change Reverse to Obverse 491. Sorry. doug Report this Post to the Staff
