Caddis Valued Member United States 212 Posts	Posted 07/01/2022 8:00 pm Hello, I admit the large cent variations seem rather confusing for me to understand. I'm going to take my shot though with this 1892 and deem it an obverse 2. What do you think? Report this Post to the Staff

okiecoiner Pillar of the Community Canada 5418 Posts	Posted 07/01/2022 8:10 pm Do the E's have a small/short cross-latch on the inside serif? If so, then a 2 and a 2 with the full N in Regina as well. Report this Post to the Staff
Caddis Valued Member United States 212 Posts	Posted 07/01/2022 8:19 pm I think they do. The e's you are referring to are in the DEI and Regina. Report this Post to the Staff

JeyRey2000 Pillar of the Community Canada 742 Posts	Posted 10/21/2024 7:36 pm So how in the heck to tell the difference between obv 2 and obv 4? They both appear to have short cross E in Regina? Report this Post to the Staff
okiecoiner Pillar of the Community Canada 5418 Posts	Posted 10/21/2024 8:18 pm A 4 will have the smooth, rounded chin/throat like an Obv 1 Report this Post to the Staff
JeyRey2000 Pillar of the Community Canada 742 Posts	Posted 10/21/2024 9:20 pm I could stare at those 2 obv for hours and still not get it. The chins look exactly the same to me and I'm using coinsandcanada. Report this Post to the Staff
okiecoiner Pillar of the Community Canada 5418 Posts	Posted 10/21/2024 9:59 pm Both of the photos in this thread are the same coin, just a little better picture and note the folded/creased chin/throat. Take a look at Charlton that shows the different Obverses. The 1 and 4 have a smooth, rounded chin/throat. The 2 and 3 have a crease/fold in the throat/chin. The 3's with have a large vertical crossmember on the E's on the Obv. The 1, 2, and 4 have short regular crossmember E's. Surely you have any Charlton that shows the different Obv types for large cents. Don't believe everything that you see in CaC. Edited by okiecoiner 10/22/2024 10:17 am Report this Post to the Staff
