NumisEd Pillar of the Community United States 5177 Posts	Posted 12/01/2020 7:31 pm Where did the 1-over (part of 1-over-200) go? It seems to be completely missing from the reverse. So, I'm a bit skeptical that this coin is real and not a counterfeit. If you look at PCGS Photograde, even a Half Cent graded G still has the 1-over-200 visible: https://www.PCGS.com/photograde#/Dr...fCent/Grades Edited by NumisEd 12/01/2020 7:36 pm Report this Post to the Staff

paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 12/01/2020 9:24 pm 1807 C-1, I call it VG8 net G5 due to some light to moderate corrosion and pitting, with some dark staining on the obverse. The reverse at the fraction bar area is environmental damage, a planchet flaw, or a die defect as Coinfrog suggested.. Wouldn't go more than $40-$50 on it if it looks better in hand, but the eye appeal isn't very good with this one.
