Bronze & Copper Collector

Superb!!!

I forgot to mention, the date numeral positioning matches known F-20's also

I tend to think it's an obverse 2, reverse g.. An F-20

I believe that was an "asset"....

He does appear somewhat fatigued.....

I've lost track as I've been comparing the 2 coins, but I have noted easily more than half a dozen differences. They range from the placement of the + and some of the colons, the positioning of certain letters, and the alignment of the upper hair ribbon in relation to the N in OMN, as well as the the alignment of the rear of the bust as noted by Nick in the preceding post. The only item I haven't checked and compared as I'm on my cell phone and haven't had an opportunity to print out the images, is to count the border teeth.

Better make sure it is properly identified somehow now, just in case. So you or someone else doesn't forget what it really is.......

Precisely to what I was referring... (How could I forget.)

Not really..... They just make up new varieties rather than admit they made a mistake.....

From these images, on my cell phone, they BOTH appear to be round beads on both obverse and reverse, F-496.

Not really sure I would say IMPETUOUS, I probably could think of a few choicer words...

I can see a faint image of the upper colon dot after the D. Just very weak. Possibly a partially filled die. Re: The different size colon dots, I've seen them before. Mostly on F-15 central cuts (which are rife with die repairs). Found on a few others too. Probably just a repair to the die. We will never know for sure.

I concur.... F-33

2 dealers that come to mind immediately, that I had never been disappointed with, are Michael Gouby and the late Laurie Bamford.

Agreed as to overgrading and overpricing.. Also leave something to be desired as to attribution... Purchased 3 coins at various times (Before they offered images). ALL misattributed. Kept 2 as it was cheaper to keep them than return them. 3rd one I returned as it was a more expensive variety (turns out it wasn't ). And wasn't going to eat that one. Haven't puchased from them in more than a decade....

Beat me to it.....

SPECTACULAR! !!

As Requested....

Mine is the one pictured in Michael Gouby's book.. Not sure if I have it handy, not home right now, but I'll check later. .

That's what makes this hobby so great. Both ends of the spectrum and we both enjoy it. Not to mention the knowledge gained and the camaraderie shared.

Magnificent specimen Richard, however my humble specimen was probably the better bargain for €.99 (about $1.49 at the time)

Thanks for the corroboration... I qualify it with "looks like" because I'm looking at a cell (mobile) phone screen. That being said, I wouldn't even offer an opinion unless I was 99+% sure of what it was. I just allow that small amount of doubt to be there because it is a small screen.

Couldn't that be a real pain (pane)?

This is all a lot of S--T.....
