zeewool Pillar of the Community 3660 Posts	Posted 01/11/2010 7:36 pm I haven't even scratched the surface. By the way, I am not a coin collector or a dealer. These are all a small part of an inheritance. I am just trying to learn a little bit about this stuff. Report this Post to the Staff
johnny54321 Rest in Peace United States 4849 Posts	Posted 01/11/2010 8:06 pm My first thought is F-15, but it may go VF-20. The color of the rim leads me to think it may have been overdipped, but it could just be the photo. Report this Post to the Staff
vermontensium Moderator United States 16679 Posts	Posted 01/11/2010 11:08 pm I would say it is a misaligned die as evident by the obverse being affected but not the reverse. I would call this coin F15. Nice color on this copper! swcoin.ecrater.com Report this Post to the Staff
