Some of you may remember I went on a Lowball Morgan kick about 10 years ago.. Picked this up then, but didn't know what to do with it... TDN didn't want it because it wasn't toned!! image

It is not exactly cheating, I prefer to consider it creative problem solving!!!

    It was probably a pocket piece and was certainly carried around for a very long time. Wouldn't you like to know the story that goes with it? Too bad the story is lost to history.

    Nice. The mint mark is long gone...most likely an SF or possibly CC.

    Not sure whether this is an 1875-P chop marked TD image If yes, you can claim $250 from TDN after you show it to him image

    You should have told yourself that you only take out of the drawer what the drawer wants to give you, or you get nothing.

    And it does look like a CC to me.
