I found one small blurb that it is rare, but no pictures and no value. I would think if it was rare there would be a premium on it. Maybe its time for me to buy some books.

I know there are enough collectors of that series that something special like that micro S will usually have at least some slight margin over the common issues. Report this Post to the Staff
MeadowviewCollector Pillar of the Community United States 4409 Posts	Posted 02/12/2016 8:59 pm The book I own is titled, A Register of Liberty Seated half dollar Varieties Volume I San Francisco Branch Mint by Bill Bugert. I am leaning towards it being a Micro S. The above book has the necessary info to help you determine which die pair it came from. There are 10 die pairs for the Micro S, all but one are R-3 or R-4. However, this book does not mention values. If you want to purchase a copy, Rich Urich has some for sale on his site. That is where I acquired my copy from. http://www.richuhrichcoins.com/category.php?cat=18 My apologies if this post seems all over the place. -MV Edited by MeadowviewCollector 02/12/2016 9:00 pm Report this Post to the Staff
glenbejoe New Member United States 48 Posts	Posted 02/12/2016 9:50 pm Thanks for your time looking it up. 1876 micro S is what I thought also. I might just throw it on ebay with a small premium. Report this Post to the Staff
