Can't argue with the assessments above. Would love to see the coin in-hand.

the easiest way for me to tell the head of 38 is the lack of a brow lock on the forehead. the 1839/6 has the same head style but on that variety the 3 in the date sits pretty low.

here is a post I made a bit ago about the different head styles for 1839.
