HumblePie Pillar of the Community United States 1217 Posts	Posted 07/11/2020 10:40 am Hello Folks. I was wondering if anyone can help me with this Coin. NGC's Website - "The popular repunched date variety 1847/7 actually comprises two different obverse dies in three marriages. N-2 is moderately scarce but the most easily obtained, while N-18 and N-31 are both fairly rare" I was hoping someone may know if this Coin is N-2, N-18, N-31. I looked online for some info but most said this info may only be in book form. Thanks! Report this Post to the Staff

QuarterHoarder72 Pillar of the Community United States 2156 Posts	Posted 07/11/2020 11:09 am I am not good at recognizing these varieties, but just from date position and the overdate itself I think it is N-2. It sure is a nice looking coin. Great find! Edited by QuarterHoarder72 07/11/2020 11:09 am Report this Post to the Staff

CoinHunter27 Pillar of the Community United States 5887 Posts	Posted 07/11/2020 4:00 pm Wonderful coin! A great variety no doubt. Looks like a N-2 from the picture provided. I see no additional re-punching on the 4 or 8 to suggest N-18 or N-31. A close up might prove differently. -CH27 Collector of U.S. Coins, Varieties, and Colonial Coinage Report this Post to the Staff
