CoinAdvocate Valued Member United States 141 Posts	Posted 04/25/2018 6:29 pm Got this coin for a great price today and I can't seem to find any information on the variety. The base of the one appears to have a second base. I would love some additional information if anyone has any (Value etc). Thanks guys, CoinAdvocate It is not enough to merely enjoy coins; one must Advocate for them! Report this Post to the Staff

paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 04/25/2018 10:04 pm It's Newcomb's N-13. The base of the 1 has been recut (repunched). It's not very scarce, but the strong RPD tends to bring collector interest along with the similar N-25. I would grade it high VF sharpness; unfortunately, the odd reddish-blue colors are not original to the coin.

CoinAdvocate Valued Member United States 141 Posts	Posted 04/25/2018 10:08 pm Thank you so much for the information, it's way more than I could find on my own! So for $35 was it a successful cherrypick? It is not enough to merely enjoy coins; one must Advocate for them! Edited by CoinAdvocate 04/25/2018 10:20 pm Report this Post to the Staff
paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 04/26/2018 03:08 am That's about $10 more than I would have paid, but it's not bad, either.
