You can never be totally sure of using any Obverse markers to identify an 1859 reverse. The reverse has to speak for itself.


I agree okiecoiner. All we can do is narrow down the possibilities.

Does anyone have a good photo of the date area of the PC59-232 (DP#4) you could post here for comparison. The right tail coming off of the bottom of the 9 begins much higher on the 9 and is much longer, and as papeldog mentioned above, there is repunching on the 5 also.

Maybe the DP #3 would be an exception to that rule..




We have seen a few very nice DP # 4's here..but my example does not show the 9 well (bulge in the die in the very late states).

...but my example does show the RP in the 5 very well..and that RP in the 5 is quite unique to that DP # 4 variety..It makes for another important marker for the # 4..

..and lastly,.. the large die crack in leaf 7 that shows very well in the later states..
