  I couldn't get the above link to work, but this one does:

  And I agree, it is definitely NOT a Tall Date!

  This coin is up for sale again. I sent an email notifying the seller that the coin is not a tall date. I thought I did that the first time it appeared. We'll see how he responds... I will notify Ebay if the coin is still up for sale as a tall date in a few days.
  
  
  The not-so-tall date 1846-O is back again

  Funny today, I saw the same thing. Dealer had a 46-0 half listed as tall date an it was the middle height coin.

  Here's a not so tall date labeled as a tall date in an ANACS holder. The photos are blurry, but the 6 looks like that for a medium date. Perhaps the bidders realized the labeling mistake as well, but that's a very high price for a cleaned, scratched medium date. Somebody is going to be disappointed down the road, and there are no returns
  
  
  Tall Date...I don't think so
