  1. It doesn't show on the photo of my proof but I'll take a look in the flesh.
  2. I can't detect that line on any of my specimens.

    Cabinet Friction

    The true 1858 over 3 (or 2 as is now thought) always has a die flaw through the base of the date numerals:

    F38 having 2 different obverse dies

    F38 having 2 different obverse dies

    I don't think that he goes into the number of die pairings found for any given variety but I'm willing to be proved wrong.

    F38 having 2 different obverse dies

    I can only find a mention of an 1862 penny on page 31 which he describes as "as for Number 38" with 2 struck over 1, and which "should be included as Satin 38A", but none of the 1862 2 over 1 examples that I've seen are the F38 die pairing. I'm not sure that John is correct here. Or have I missed something ?

    I'll add your coin pics to my website. Would you like me to credit you by name ?

    Yes, definitely Obv 11 - the hair to the left of the tie knot gives it away.
  14. Well done - lovely coin.

    There was definitely a possibility. But not worth betting on in my view.
  16. Jerry, can you email pics to Michael Gouby so that he can update his Medusa document.

    When you get down to a particular auction, either past or present, there seems to be a search facility on each auction page (I think although I can't guarantee every page has one).

    Some searches work - what exactly are you finding that doesn't work ?

    I never did the courtesy of a reply (or thanks) but I see that a number of my points have now been fixed.
