DEVLEC Pillar of the Community Canada 3234 Posts	Posted 01/13/2017 11:58 am Here is an example of the bridge die cent..with Haxby 1a+E2 dies Strange that this obverse die was used on the W9 over 8 cent firstly and then later to make the N9 cents. A very interesting occurrence.. How or why do you think that that happened..? This cent "had" a slightly dished obverse which caused the bust to show wear quite quickly..(it has now been brought flat) The dished effect caused very little wear to show on the reverse..and the obverse legend shows very well also.

canadian-varieties Pillar of the Community Canada 1442 Posts	Posted 01/13/2017 1:40 pm That sounds like a question for Mr.Bosox :) i agree it's very neat. There's basically a "Triple G" variety for 1859 W9/8, and a "Triple G" for 1859 N9 as well Report this Post to the Staff

bosox Pillar of the Community United States 1353 Posts	Posted 01/13/2017 5:09 pm RD6 was an interesting die in that it was the only W9/8 die where they did not repair the stem to leaf #9. http://www.victoriancent.com 2011 & 2025 Fred Bowman Award Winner, 2020 J.
