Just wondering if this is OBV 6 REV I?

It's 6 + H. Still scarce and worth quite a bit in that condition.

Just to confuse you it's Gouby obverse J - much easier to look up than Freeman - whatever, it is still the most common of the lot. That type of reverse should have a sig. Have a look under the shield.

So that would make it 6+D, but the dealer i bought it from states there's no signatures on OBV/REV so don't know until in hand and a peek under the scope, perhaps worn or weak but the coin isn't worn so don't know why the signature would be if it's supposed to be there

Doh... I hate 1860 and 61. Why do you think I didn't answer straight away? Per Gouby, the only two without signatures are H and J. In H, the 'B' of 'BRITT' stands clear of the head whereas in J it is virtually touching. All others will be signed.

Will just have to wait till it comes i suppose, seller posted today, so a few days to wait

6+H = R13 didn't realise this was so scarce

[Peter 615]

Looks like a winner to me.

It is important to get it fully ID'd and noted for its rarity.

As stated before, 6+D, Freeman 29, week striking of L.C.W on reverse.

[azda 979]

Still waiting on the pair, hoping they come today, if not, then tomorrow ( i hope )

[azda 979]

The both have arrived and in coin aquisition of the week. The 1861 does have a weak signature under the shield
