Thanks

    Probably a worth a phone call to customer service.

    My guess would be yes, but that is just a guess!

    Yes, it's a freebie ... PCGS says it involves the year (see below) not the mint ...


    <DIV align=center>This month's special is for coins of a different type, dated the same year. Note that this does NOT include varieties, such as the two varieties of the 1913 Buffalo nickel or the 1917 Quarter. The Redbook is the authority. If it defines the change as a variety, it does not count. If it has a separate TYPE heading, it counts. Only regular issue, circulation strike coins are eligible. Patterns (1856 Flying Eagle), "unusual" strikes (1913 Liberty Nickel) and commemorative coins do not qualify.</DIV>


    <DIV align=center>Some examples would include:</DIV>
      <DIV align=center>
    • 1909 Indian / Lincoln Cent
    • 1938 Buffalo / Jefferson Nickel
    • 1916 Barber / Mercury Dime
    • 1921 Morgan / Peace Dollar

  • Thanks RGL

    No one, to my knowledge, has mentioned it yet but I would think the 1837 Capped Bust Half Dime / 1837 Seated Half Dime would qualify as well.
  • according to the rules posted I would have to say so too.

    Yes the 37 Bust /seated qualifies, and thank you RGL for getting a confirm on the 16-d Dime.
