ainsivalavie Valued Member Canada 221 Posts	Posted 11/12/2018 11:11 am I have a 1 cent 1881H with what appears to be Obverse #1, with almost all the letters of the legend are doubled. I'm not a great "specialist" for this year in particular, but could it be the Obverse 1/1 variety? I'm sorry if my English isn't perfect... I'm learning a little more every day.

Here is another from the same obverse die (click the photo to enlarge). https://www.PCGS.com/valueview/vict...596406&h=pop http://www.victoriancent.com 2011 & 2025 Fred Bowman Award Winner, 2020 J.

ainsivalavie Valued Member Canada 221 Posts	Posted 11/12/2018 2:09 pm Thank you very much Botox. Out of curiosity, does anyone know how many different dies (Obverse #1/#1) were used for the year 1881H? I'm sorry if my English isn't perfect... I'm learning a little more every day.
