post a picture of an obverse that can has some features that only go with a certain year and see if anyone can guess it, some will be obvious to some of you and some may not, all denominations welcome,i will start with a vicky large cent I used 2 pics with different light

1882, cause I know you don't have the '81. It's definitely using at least one strike from a missing left foot '76 die(or it could be a die made from the '76 hub), but looks like a 1a/1, so '82.

For the rest of us, does that mean right or wrong?

Gidgit .. You didn't tell me if I was right with the '82. I wasn't going to let the rest of the cat out of the bag. I'm surprised that more CanaDians couldn't guess it.

Well, it's an Obv 3, so 1891 or 92. I'll say 1891. To top it off it's the scarce '91 with the wrong T in Gratia and in XF condition, it's a $400 coin.
