    Maybe a coin with two die or planchet cracks that look like lightning.

    Nope!

    Yep, another gem. Lol. Lower grade but the same variety. I'll post some pics later. Unbelievable! This one might be under G4 ? I don't mind in the least. Besides, I only spent $5! Only $10 for the first one. 😁⚡⚡

    It's funny how those coincidences tend to happen. You look for months for some hard to find variety, and finally, you find one. Then one or two more pop up in the next few weeks - not from original rolls, either, just random, individual coins. I've had it happen to me a surprising number of times. The more you look, the more you'll be amazed at what you can find... ;)

  • joeykoinsjoeykoins Posts: 17,598 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Just minutes ago, I sent my original Snow-1 out to our Host! Hopefully, I'll get my baby back by June 1st? As soon as I receive it, I'll show you guy's. The main worry is for them NOT to find any sort of problem. I'll be content even with a G4 grade. :)

    Would you guy's consider my coin to be this Snow Variety? Snow-6?

    I was thinking (oh, oh, watch out). When I said earlier that this coin would be graded under a G4. Do you guy's think perhaps It has a shot for a PO1? If knowing it would, I'm seriously considering to send this coin in, liken my first 1864? Thanks guy's 🙂

    @joeykoins

    I would say the 1 and 8 do not match the Snow-1 on this coin. Look at the counters (holes) in the 8 - they look quite different. There might be some repunching going on, but I don't think it matches any of the RPD's listed in the Cherrypicker's Guide. Perhaps someone who has the Snow book would like to chime in.

    Oh, thanks! I thought the 8 was for sure similar? Ok, thank you. Would you at least agree to the "L" type? Pointed Bust?

    "Similar" doesn't cut it - they have to match exactly. :) In this case, I would not say that they are similar. Watch the 8 on the GIF made from your 2 coins - on the Snow-1, the way the counters of the 8 are cut through by the 2nd 8 is totally different than on your new coin. I do think that both are the "L" type.

  • IkesTIkesT Posts: 3,642 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Here's a GIF where just the 8's of the two coins are aligned with each other:

  • amwldcoinamwldcoin Posts: 11,269 ✭✭✭✭✭

    I think there are 7 repunched varities if I'm not mistaken.

    CPG lists 6 RPD's for the 1864 "L" type, but I don't know if that covers all known varieties.

  • amwldcoinamwldcoin Posts: 11,269 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Made me go look in my new Snow Book. There are actually 19 various repunched dates listed...a couple are sub varieties. :o

    Thanks guy's. You most certainly convinced me. Lol Would anybody consider this coin to have a shot at the lowest of the low grade, PO1?
