N1. Note the position of the leaf end relative to S2 in STATES.
Lance.
N9
N1 (OP coin)
Right as usual Lance. The die crack is only
from S9 to S12 & no branch crack to the dentils yet.

Lance is correct. It's an Ozzie Newsome-1, I mean a Newcomb-1.
Check out some of my 1794 Large Cents on www.coingallery.org
At least it wasn't a three........
Ok, is Newcome 1 common?
Yes. http://www.coinfacts.com/large_cents/matron_head_large_cents/1835_large_cents/1835_large_cent_n1.htm

Common, but it looks to be an attractive specimen.
Well... I learned something today.... I am no copper expert by any means, so tips like this help to expand my knowledge.... I should look at the old cents I have (just a couple/few)... and check them out on coinfacts. Well.. it might snow today...
