ironhorse Valued Member Canada 363 Posts	Posted 12/12/2021 8:56 pm Hi Montgomery If I was going to put a label on that one I would call it LC-48-C1..the chocolate brown colour makes me lean towards a copper ..LC-48-C2(brass) the brassy yellow usually tones black so that is why I went I the direction I did based on your pics For a couple of dollars I would have grabbed that one too!

Montgomery Valued Member Canada 429 Posts	Posted 12/13/2021 12:20 pm Thanks for your answer. Someone know informations about the hoard of LC48-C2 discovered n'est thousand Islands? Report this Post to the Staff
blargish Valued Member United States 178 Posts	Posted 12/13/2021 12:52 pm That's Courteau variety 3 which has a rarity of R3 according to Courteau. The so-called "Silly Head" obverse is pretty unmistakeable. Charlton groups that variety together with a few others as LC-48C2. As for the St. Lawrence River Hoard, here is a post I made regarding the subject a little while ago (http://goccf.com/t/401168). I haven't learned much since, but I still remain interested in the topic! Report this Post to the Staff
Montgomery Valued Member Canada 429 Posts	Posted 12/15/2021 06:14 am Is it hard to find one coming from the Prescott/St-Laurent hoard? Report this Post to the Staff
blargish Valued Member United States 178 Posts	Posted 12/16/2021 11:42 am It's not that difficult Montgomery, and they're easy to spot due to the color they have from the cleaning process that was applied to them. The Bust & Harp examples are slightly easier to come across than the Tiffins. Check out my response to your email for more details. For reference, here's an example of Co 1 (TF-1) which is an LC-48C2 from the hoard. Report this Post to the Staff
