RK55 Pillar of the Community United States 2189 Posts	Posted 04/19/2019 10:39 am I have looked at the old topics and still I find it tough to judge. I need opinions before I sell this as a filler. My eyes are not as good as they once were, however during a close-up shot I think I see the "L". not sure if the bust is pointed or not..they all look the same to me! Any opinions are appreciated!

indiancentvarieties Valued Member United States 70 Posts	Posted 04/20/2019 11:48 am 1864 With L Snow 5 die pairing, though a reverse image will be necessary to determine if it is Snow 5a or 5b as Obverse 8 was in service during two different die pairings. Report this Post to the Staff
RK55 Pillar of the Community United States 2189 Posts	Posted 04/21/2019 10:15 am Thanks for the additional info indiancentvarieties, I will take a look at the coin when I am back at work Monday. If it is a 5b, does it add any special value to the coin? Report this Post to the Staff
indiancentvarieties Valued Member United States 70 Posts	Posted 04/21/2019 2:13 pm Both the 5a and 5b are found in similar quantities; therefore, no additonal premium for the 5b die pairing. Report this Post to the Staff
