Antique Shop Find! Sometimes I kinda feel guilty ...okay not really!

Picked this up for $28 at an antique store today! The register lady took the sticker off, but I have my receipt. image

I am not an expert on this series, but it looks like the die marker is there with the separation on the right wing.

What say you 1858/7?

...I also believe I picked up an 1896s quarter for $7.50 and a 1912s 5c for $2.00 ...both are low grade but the mint marks look like they are there to me. I will have to send them in for grading to know for sure.

    I'm not seeing it. Not all broken wings are 58/7's. The late die states have a lump in the field above the date. To lazy to be specific as I have been grinding all day!

    I was looking for my iPhone macro lens and cannot find it. I'll try to post something once I can get a decent pick.

    Great to see other shops carrying coins. Gotta love that.
