Phil310 Pillar of the Community United States 1101 Posts	Posted 04/01/2019 9:11 pm I think that's a very nice EF, maybe AU. The A in REGINA is re-punched. That is a marker for Haxby obverse 54. There are also die cracks at the R of VICTORIA and between the E and G of REGINA. If you are not familiar with Dr. Haxby's website catalog of the 1859 narrow 9's, you might enjoy checking it out. Here is a link. www.vickycents.com Edited by Phil310 04/01/2019 9:18 pm Report this Post to the Staff

mtracy14 Valued Member United States 55 Posts	Posted 04/01/2019 9:52 pm My apologies. I believe photo #1 is actually a shot of my 1893. Here is an actual shot of the 59. Report this Post to the Staff
Phil310 Pillar of the Community United States 1101 Posts	Posted 04/01/2019 10:11 pm The full side photos are actually better for grading and attributing varieties and your photos are pretty good. Welcome to the forum! Report this Post to the Staff

mtracy14 Valued Member United States 55 Posts	Posted 04/02/2019 12:53 pm It appears to me this is a wide 9 , but I don't have the experience to know for sure. I paid $9 for it, good deal? Report this Post to the Staff
Phil310 Pillar of the Community United States 1101 Posts	Posted 04/02/2019 1:18 pm It's a narrow 9. In that grade, I think it was a good deal at $9. Report this Post to the Staff

mtracy14 Valued Member United States 55 Posts	Posted 04/04/2019 5:23 pm Thank you Phil310. I finally figured out how use the Haxby site. Your information helped tremendously. I have found it to be a Haxby PC59-543. The die crack has not yet progressed into Victoria's nose area, so I assume it was printed earlier than the coin appearing on hi site. Thank you very much! It is pretty fun. Report this Post to the Staff

It is an earlier die state which accounts for the lighter die crack. Bill might be right. Quote: you will be hooked on the '59's right shortly. They're a trip! Report this Post to the Staff
