I received a nice new addition for my Indian Head and Flying Eagle Dansco today, thought I'd share it. 1858 large letters, with low leaf reverse. Thanks to Rick Snow at Eagle Eye Rare Coins.

Nice coin. I am familiar with the large and small letters, but not the low leafs. How do you tell that?
It's the little spiky leaf that goes up from the wreath to the lower left of the C in cent. Also the corresponding one that is to the lower right of the T in cent, but seems like the left one is easier to distinguish. This is the reverse that has a lower relief and is more common on the small letters variety.
Nice looking coin. Had not heard of a low leaf variety. Thanks for posting.
Congrats ... that would be the one eluding me all this time. Purdy!
Well it surely wasn't a cherry pic from Rick. He wrote the book you know.
