SilverTurtle Valued Member United States 371 Posts	Posted 09/13/2009 9:42 pm I bought this today at the Coin Show, and was happy with my purchase. The Overdate is strong, as you can see the 1 in between the knob of the 2 and the point of the 2, and there is a die crack through the 1. I will get scanner pictures soon. But for now, here is an original EF-AUish Trime. Report this Post to the Staff

SilverTurtle Valued Member United States 371 Posts	Posted 09/13/2009 9:57 pm Thanks. There were lots of interesting coins at the show. I saw numerous Bust Dollars, 9 S VDBs, and a dealer who had 3 1875 CC 20 Cent Pieces. There was lots of cool stuff there. Report this Post to the Staff
Jaobler Pillar of the Community United States 6381 Posts	Posted 09/14/2009 12:04 am Looks pretty good for a lightly-circulated Trime. There are a few hairline scratches on the obverse, but nothing too obvious. Typical clash marks are visible between the III digits on the reverse. Is there some damage at N in UNITED? The letter looks sort of deformed, but it could just be the picture. Any chance you can post a sharper, enlarged photo of the date? I'd like to get a better look at the overdate features. Congrats on the new purchase! Report this Post to the Staff

I'd like to get a better look at the overdate features Yes, it is just the picture. I'll get some scanner pictures very soon. I'm going to set up my dad's scanner in my room within a few days so I can get better pictures of my coins. Yes, there is strong die clashing between the Roman Numerals. There also seems to be a tiny bit of wear on the Bundle of Arrows. A patch of toning at the bottom of the reverse. My Assumption for grade would be AU-50. More pictures will come soon.

clembo Valued Member United States 442 Posts	Posted 09/16/2009 11:19 pm Nice coin. Sounds like there was some nice type material at the show. My kinda show. 75-CC 20 Cent Piece on my want list but not in my budget I'm afraid. Report this Post to the Staff
