A question for CBHD experts...

For the 1829 is there more than one die marriage that used the "C" reverse? I know there is only one in the blue "Federal Half Dimes" book but not sure if other marriages that used the "C" reverse have been identified subsequent to the book.

    No, there are no other die marriages of any date that use the Reverse Die C, as used on 1829 LM-3/V2. That is the only die marriage which uses that reverse die, as stated in the L/M book, and as shown on the Emission Order chart on page 62 of the L/M book. No other die marriages have been discovered since the publication of the L/M book which use that Reverse Die C. The only new Capped Bust half dime discovery since publication of the L/M book is the 1835 LM-12, which uses the Reverse JJ. That is, of course, unless Utahcoin has discovered any 'new' die marriages.
