Re: Saturday morning coffee with coins
Thanks for playing guess the reverse Todd, as you no doubt know, 105 and 106 both share obverse 5 which makes this a game of die states...

I'll give Stack's an A+, ANR an A and Heritage a C-
A little comparison of how Stack's, American Numismatic Rarities and Heritage present 3 different examples of the same coin type. I picked an obscure type that warrants some kind of description - the very rare Talbot / Blofield Cavalry Mule: The first example described by Stacks: 1795 Talbot, Allum & Lee Cent… -
