razorear Pillar of the Community United States 613 Posts	Posted 06/26/2010 1:45 pm How many different obverse dies were used for the 1877's not including the proof dies? Thanks in advance. Report this Post to the Staff
robbudo Pillar of the Community United States 2757 Posts	Posted 06/28/2010 8:50 pm Number of Proof dies: 3 obverse & 3 reverse (avg 303 per var.). Regular issue: 2 obverse die & 1 reverse die. Total coins struck in 1877: 825,500. Average number of coins struck from a single die throughout the Indian head series = 200,000 coins. Rick Snow basically concludes that there are either other dies or there really weren't 825,500 Indian cents struck that year ... Report this Post to the Staff

razorear Pillar of the Community United States 613 Posts	Posted 06/29/2010 07:38 am That explains alot to me. I always thought there was only 1 obverse die used. I've been trying to use the date as a diagnosis to counterfeits. No wonder its been giving me a tough time. Thanks guys. Report this Post to the Staff
