Does anyone have a good close up shot of an 1812/1 overdate Half?

Within a week or so there will be one on the ANR website. We were consigned a 1812/1 Large 8 (the rare one) which will appear in our June Chicago sale. Half dollars begin session 1 of the sale, so it should be in the first 2-3 dozen lots once the auction goes online.

Ah - thanks guys - I wanted to see what one looked like because I just purchased an 1812 with what looked like something behind the 2, and a very mangled looking 8. I'll post a pic later or tomorrow - thanks!

When checking for the 1812 overdate you want to look at the reverse: "AM joined at base and A is higher. N is recut near right base." as per Overton.

If you have this reverse, then you have one of the overdates.

Another hint...with the large 8, if you "see" the overdate...it probably ain't!
