DoctorBurnzy Pillar of the Community United States 1378 Posts	Posted 11/25/2018 5:24 pm I've had this for a couple years but haven't graded it yet. The price was right. Anyone want to tell me what type it is an estimated grade and perhaps a value? Report this Post to the Staff

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 11/25/2018 5:29 pm A Draped Bust large cent, of course. Is this the true color (hoping not)? Report this Post to the Staff
DoctorBurnzy Pillar of the Community United States 1378 Posts	Posted 11/25/2018 5:33 pm It's darker than that, but my sis took the liberties of enhancing the photo because there is toning on it. She was bringing it out for her benefit, but it's a much darker color. But it's all I got at the moment and it's a close up for which I can show, Report this Post to the Staff
DoctorBurnzy Pillar of the Community United States 1378 Posts	Posted 11/25/2018 5:36 pm Is this the first or 2nd hair style? I'm not a large cent collector....well just this one. I paid under $300....so it is what it is. Edited by DoctorBurnzy 11/25/2018 5:38 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Zurie Pillar of the Community United States 5672 Posts	Posted 11/25/2018 5:46 pm This is the 2nd hair style. Looks cleaned and retoned, but it might be just the lighting and photo enhancing. Report this Post to the Staff
DoctorBurnzy Pillar of the Community United States 1378 Posts	Posted 11/25/2018 6:11 pm I'm sure it has been cleaned at some point......but 2nd hair style. Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 11/25/2018 6:48 pm Yes, 2nd hair style. As shown, I'd say F details (cleaned). Report this Post to the Staff
Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 11/26/2018 08:20 am 1798 type 2 hair, type 2 lettering, small 8. That pus it pretty much into the group of S-173 to 187. The die cut from the right ribbon to the A makes it 182, 183, or 184. The die chips from the top left of the 7 to the hair makes it S-184 an R-2 coin. I think Die Stage III. Too bad, 182 and 183 are both rare especially 183. Edited by Conder101 11/26/2018 08:26 am Report this Post to the Staff
