what is interesting is that both the rolls that are mentioned in this thread is :-
1/ both rolls have a CC coin showing (nice and tempting)
2/ Both have the reverse showing at each end (why not an obverse? coincidence, or what?
One has a nice 7/8 TF

It said in the listing that in his opinion the CC is a 1878 by looking at the tail. How can he tell that? By looking at the number of tailfeathers?

8 tail feather Morgans where in error and the 7 over 8 was the fix later in 1878 they all went to the 7 tail feathers type ...so only 78 would have 8 over 3...8/4...8/4 and so on
