Feuchtwanger Cent Variety?

MICHAELDIXON

What variety is this Feuchtwanger cent? I purchased it today at the New Market, MD show.

The color is a little more silver than my picture indicates.

My photographic skills are "limited." This is almost the true color.

Ambro51 sent me this site a few years ago, it should be able to tell you all about your coin:

Unfortunately, I cannot access the page you sent for the Feuchtwanger even though I registered for the site.

Thank you!!!

It's the most common variety by far making up at least 70% of survivors, also most common high grade piece. The 6 obverse was also interestingly used for the RERussell 12 1/2 cent. Some varieties are seldom seen. For instance the first 2A I seen on eBay in two years fold a fee weeks ago. How often can you say that about a coin...first one on ebsy in two years? I didn't buy already have a PCGS MS63 2A and a NCS VF

Teletrade has 8 of these listed in next Sundays auction. All PCGS graded, 3 in Genuine holders, 5 with grades of VF25 to AU50

Edited to add...They are not mine

Attributed: 6I. 6I. 6I. 5G. 3E. 5H. 5G. 5G. The 5H is probably the scarcest of the bunch, an R2 but I've seen less of these than the R3 rated 3E ( which seem like an R2)

This coin graded AU55 and it is a 6I. Thanks for your help!

Too bad PCGS won't bother to attribute these. They'll attribute anything else....but figuring out these 13 varieties .... Must be too diffumicult BTW you got a gift on the 55

"BTW you got a gift on the 55"

Might have, but their opinion is the one that counts!
