TJsCoins Pillar of the Community United States 3229 Posts	Posted 03/05/2016 11:36 pm I have this 1796 Liberty Cap Large Cent pegged as a Sheldon-87. A confirmation would be great though:) FYI the liberty pole is there. It is just not showing in the pics. Please grade. Edited by TJsCoins 03/06/2016 12:16 am Report this Post to the Staff

GERMANICVS Pillar of the Community Germany 1852 Posts	Posted 03/06/2016 06:54 am It is definitely S-87, and quite a nice coin. I grade VG10, with no major surface issues, only the color is throwing me off a bit. It may have been lightly cleaned ? At any rate, a nice scarce coin. Report this Post to the Staff

The color change is rub from other objects Report this Post to the Staff
