indian_hoarder Pillar of the Community United States 5079 Posts	Posted 08/22/2024 10:41 pm Looking for opinions on grade and Overton variety. This one I believe is the 1822/1, not sure of the Overton. Photo lighting and skills are poor, so keep that in mind. Most of these I am posting today appear perfectly original. Also, for the Overton experts, please provide an opinion also on the premium - the PCGS guides barely show any having a premium. Thank you! Report this Post to the Staff

adam126402 Pillar of the Community United States 877 Posts	Posted 08/23/2024 12:23 am IH, this is not 1822/1. The only Overton that I see as a match is O-109. But there's some extra weirdness going on with the stars and what looks like repunched or doubling of for example the last "A" in America and the arrow head nearest the "A". So will be curious what the experts have to say on this one. I'll go with AU-58 on the grade, but probably higher, what I'm seeing could be strike related.

indian_hoarder Pillar of the Community United States 5079 Posts	Posted 08/23/2024 02:43 am Has the lump inside the last 2, but after more research I'm calling this 1822 O-109. Waiting for a more knowledgeable member... Report this Post to the Staff

paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 08/23/2024 11:48 am AU53. Date and stars merit closer examination, not sure if that is tracking due to Die Deterioration or actual doubling.

jacrispies Pillar of the Community United States 3848 Posts	Posted 08/23/2024 12:09 pm AU-55 Details Cleaned. Not an attractive coin and the TPGs will not like that either, particularly the strange reverse coloring. This is either an O-109 or O-109a, the die crack that designates the latter lines the bottom of RICA, and is difficult to see even with a glass. The rarities are R-3 and R-5- respectively. From the Die Deterioration I would lean toward the 109a R-5-, in which there really isn't a significant premium. Quote: Date and stars merit closer examination, not sure if that is tracking due to Die Deterioration or actual doubling. That effect is due to metal flow and is seen on this type and most commonly Morgan dollars. Suffering from bust half fever. Want to learn how to attribute early half dollars by die variety?
