One of my purchases from the August ANA show Philadelphia

Actually this was the first pick up I made then I put it in my backpack and forgot it was there. It really needs a dip in Acetone to get rid of the debris.

I was extremely excited about this coin probably more so than the later slabbed purchases. It is a variety I Have had on my top ten list for almost a decade. not only that its in a reasonable grade.
Its only classified as rare but has been extremely elusive.

The main marker being the 1 and 8. Flynn's book falls down on this one in the diagnostics. He has a habit of using die cracks as markers which is OK, until you come across an early state version where the die cracks have not yet formed.

So would you care to grade my dirty 2 Cent



KF-F2-TPD, BR2382, FL65F-lolr,FS2-25,KN2
