jerryc39 Pillar of the Community United States 3160 Posts	Posted 04/18/2016 08:21 am This one looked like an N-16 by date position. R5- Looks about F-12 or so? Any added value due to variety? http://www.ebay.com/itm/1846-tall-d...p=true&rt=nc Hoping the color looks less orange and more brown in hand. Photography issue.

GERMANICVS Pillar of the Community Germany 1849 Posts	Posted 04/18/2016 2:06 pm CQR lists the following values for N-16: in F12 ave - $50 on VG8 ave - $40 Assuming CQR is correct, It looks like it does have a moderate premium v.s R-4 varieties. The same seller also had a nice looking 1830 N-10. Was really tempted to bid on it but went jogging and forgot all about it. Report this Post to the Staff
billjones Pillar of the Community United States 1499 Posts	Posted 04/18/2016 3:36 pm Looking at the reverse it would seem that the obverse of this coin should be stronger than it is. I can only give it a VG given the weak "LIBERTY." That feature was large and durible on the Matron Head and Braided Hair large cents. Report this Post to the Staff
jerryc39 Pillar of the Community United States 3160 Posts	Posted 04/18/2016 3:55 pm I know what you mean Bill. Grellman states this variety is struck very weakly at Liberty especially at LI so I guess thats why that area looks like it does. Edited by jerryc39 04/18/2016 4:04 pm Report this Post to the Staff
billjones Pillar of the Community United States 1499 Posts	Posted 04/18/2016 4:22 pm I don't collect large cents by die variety, and Newcomb varieties drive me nuts. I know that a number of guys made some very good money spotting Newcomb varieties 20 to 25 years ago, but I could never be one of them. John Wright's "Cent Book" is a wonderful reference. The books for the 1840 to 1857 cents, not so much. Report this Post to the Staff
