I just can't shake the variety mode, and getting two on one is even sweeter. I am pretty pumped about this one;

1866 5C RPD & Obv Die Clash FS-306/401

There are about 5 certified and attributed through our host.

Thank you for your interest and comments!

    Is that toning in the image representative of the coin? This series almost never has color so finding one would be a real accomplishment.

    Buyer and seller of vintage coin boards!

    That eye appeal, to me, trumps the die varieties.

    Here is a 1866 Shield Nickel overlay from @howards (Howard Spindel's website) to better see the die clashes from the REV to the OBV

    Great coin! I like the color and am a fan of die clashes.

    Tonedeaf is a nickname given to me in reference to my guitar playing ability.
