Forum Variety Attribution Thread (Fivaz-Stanton Numbers)

FlyingAlFlyingAl Posts: 3,500 ✭✭✭✭✭

I won't lie, I totally stole this idea from @NeophyteNumismatist. Hopefully he won't mind :smile:. I thought it would be a good idea to extend the range to most post Barber coins, as found in the Cherrypicker's Guide/Variety Vista.

The idea is that this thread will be a collective effort, with no one set attributer and hopefully multiple opinions chiming in. If you have a coin that you would want attributed by FS number - whether it be a cherrypick you'd like to verify, a coin that is not worth attribution and you want a second opinion on, or something else - feel free to post it here! It might also cut down on a few threads, but we'll see if this gains any traction.

If there are more members here with expertise in different areas of attribution, we can easily expand the thread to encompass that (though I think we should keep half cents to the original thread).

Post away!

    @FlyingAl - of course I don't mind. I love the idea, and would love to see more of this stuff. Are you doing all Barber denoms? I only have a few Barber types, but I would love to know more about them.

    I am a newer collector (started April 2020), and I primarily focus on U.S. Half Cents and Type Coins. Early copper is my favorite.

    No, all post-Barber types. Lincoln cents, Buffalo nickels, Jefferson nickels, etc. Ironically, Barbers aren't included :smile:.
