    Looks like the small 0, Overton 112., which would make it an R4 and one of three very scarce varities for the year.

    I find it almost impossible to attribute these from a scan; just can't see the diags in the shield, among other things.

    The stars, (4 thru 7 and maybe a few others), seem to be or have begun to be drawn into the edge; O-110 supposedly are "sharper and clear of milling". If in fact it is the "E" reverse, it could be one of several others; almost looks like the 2-s2 obverse on O-105, but, again trying to attribute without being able to measure distances and examine the stripes and crossbars is almost impossible, to me.

    Thanks Guys I do appreciate the help. This coin has great old time color! It is the small O variety. Beyond that I will need to continue reserching it. A old time dealer found this coin among his things and it has been off the market for years. I am asuming the grade of VF.
