1858-O 50C - Are there any forum members knowledgeable with Wiley-Bugert varieties?

I have had this 1858-O 50C for a couple of years and would like to get some opinions on the variety. I think I have narrowed it down to WB-29 because of REV Q "many diagonal (SW to NE) die lines in the shield’s lower recessed area", the MM placement looks similar as well.

Thank you for your interest and comments!

    You could very well be right. The MM alone would place it at a WB29, 34, 35. I will look later after I return, but I'm out of time right now. Very nice looking coin.

    I'm not at home to review the same resource you're likely using:

    lsccweb.org/BillBugertBooks/BillBugertBooks.php

    Posting that link for others that might be interested.

    Perhaps I'll have some time later to join in the fun.

    Yep @Catbert that is where I got the variety info for coin.

    you may or may not find these useful. i have many times over the years looked up reg sets. (especially full varieties for certain denoms)

    full set composition LINK

    full set with a lot of coins (most completed one listed): LINK

    coins must be hard to come by with so few sets registered. although i'm sure there are some people out there doing it off the radar and i appreciate their efforts.

    Other than "just knowing", would it be beneficial to have it attributed through our host?

    I don’t think so unless you’re selling to a specialist who wants it listed. I own several SL halves and don’t feel motivated to reslab for that purpose.
