paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 09/06/2017 9:13 pm The coin is nothing special, one of a larger lot of circulated IHC's, but I always look for Snow varieties out of habit; not sure if this one is listed, but it has a pretty neat reverse die crack that I almost didn't catch the first time. It's somewhat lighter brown in color than the pictures indicate.

kanga Pillar of the Community United States 5825 Posts	Posted 09/07/2017 08:48 am I took a quick look at Snow's guide and I don't see that die crack mentioned. But he is mostly interested in the obverse. Report this Post to the Staff

RedRaider Pillar of the Community United States 1021 Posts	Posted 09/07/2017 2:14 pm Rick Snow lists very few die crack varieties, usually very dramatic ones. I had a shattered die 1863 that I sent him a while back and he did not list it. Neat coin though! Report this Post to the Staff
