Where did you find it?
At my favorite shop!
I bet you thought I found it by roll searching.

By far, my BEST Cherry Pick ever!!! Next to my 1999 Wide AM Cent find on the sidewalk 10 years ago, this is my best find.
I realize it's a low grade but I'm sending it in to our Host! The Snow-1 Variety!

Fantastic! There's something about the repunched dates and mint marks that draw me in. Gives a real sense of the history of the die that you won't have otherwise.
Knowledge is power (and money).
Awesome find and keen eye. Wtg on your score
Usually, I hate the winter. After today, now I LOVE the Snow!

Cool. What is something like that worth?
Latin American Collection
Nice!
Very neat variety!
Very cool!
I'm not quite sure yet? I guess I'll have to go along these lines for now? Snow-1

Nice!
Was it in a 2x2 or a loose box when you found it? Great pickup!
Nice find @JoeyCoins
That is awesome!! Congratulations!
I wonder how many of us thought you were going to say you found it in the Coinstar reject slot?
Great transactions with oih82w8, JasonGaming, Moose1913.
Loose in assorted Indians! It was the third coin I checked. Then BAM!
"Jesus died for you and for me, Thank you,Jesus"!!!
--- If it should happen I die and leave this world and you want to remember me. Please only remember my opening Sig Line.That's a very cool RPD. My estimation is that it's easily a $100 or so coin to the specialist.
That's a cool coin . Looking at the 1 in the photos in the OP, I see a sleepwalking bear.
I was thinking close to double that, $200! Just the "L" variety alone should be around $100, adding the Snow Variety should boost up the value. I hope anyway? We'll see. Lol

Great variety!
Way to go man! And I thought you were pulling my leg again
Cool RPD! Congrats.
As for the value, there are a few of these in lower grade for sale on eBay at the moment for $50-80.

Very instructive.
Thanks.
You go boy !
Cool
Super find. What's going on on the obverse by the first feather by the "S"? A crack (lamination) of sorts. Or damage. Diecrack?
Thanks. What appears to be a crack, it was just a hair. Lol

--- If it should happen I die and leave this world and you want to remember me. Please only remember my opening Sig Line.Nice find and a great cherry pick....Be sure to show us when it is slabbed...Cheers, RickO
I had to come in again and see that again
Nice pick @JoeyCoins
Lol, Yeah, me too! I still can't believe it. 🤔
I thank all you guy's for sharing in my feelings. All of you are not only great teachers but great friends! And that's including my toughest critics. 😍

Nice variety.
One of my favorites.

Congrats
Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.
Congrats on your find...
Here is my holed version of this Variety.



Bought it from my local dealer on 8-31-91.
Thanks! Ma-a-an. Yours is much better than mine except for the hole. Very nice. If not for that hole, the coin would bring a high Premium.
"Jesus died for you and for me, Thank you,Jesus"!!!
--- If it should happen I die and leave this world and you want to remember me. Please only remember my opening Sig Line.Agreed...BUT, keep in mind there ARE Holed Coin Collectors out there that WILL pay a premium for this one.
Yes, such as, lordmarcovan, right?
"Jesus died for you and for me, Thank you,Jesus"!!!
--- If it should happen I die and leave this world and you want to remember me. Please only remember my opening Sig Line.I don't think I ever got back to you guys with my results after PCGS got a hold of it?
Here it is in the True View pic.
They gave me a low grade of a AG 03. You were right on hitting that low ball grade. Mine at the moment is all alone on the bottom. With, I might add, a POP 1 designation.
Sorry for all the BIG letters, guys.
They have it priced at $60. I highly think it is almost twice that price, going by the lowest grade for that specific variety and having that POP 1, designation? What do you guys think? Sorry for the late posting.
"Jesus died for you and for me, Thank you,Jesus"!!!
--- If it should happen I die and leave this world and you want to remember me. Please only remember my opening Sig Line.$60 sounds low for a pop 1 graded lowball.
The 1864 L is one of my favs. Thanks for updating this thread. I think it predates my time on the forum by just a little so I missed it the first time. Great snag and congrats on the pop 1. If you’re going for a lowball set is it a 1/0?
In general, how many variety collectors collect lowballs and how much more are they willing to pay for them? I don't really know the answer to either question.
There is another possibility to consider - that people may view low grade examples of this variety as not being worth enough to send in to PCGS.
In this case, ANACS has certified 5 in AG03:
Very nice find. I love to check a scrum of old IHCs in a pile at a flea market cause they're always kinda discarded in the junk coin cigar box. The hunt continues. Peace Roy

two points: I think it's a really great Cherrypick that shows your diligence and sharp eye --- but --- it seems foolhardy to cut into your good fortune by giving part of it away to PCGS.
look at it like this, the coin is low grade yet easily identifiable for what it is. would you rather have this coin with a net value of where it is now or a net value of where it is now minus about $50??
Congrats @joeykoins
keep hunting as it sure makes you happy
