    I see the die crack above e pluribus unum, however I also see doubling in the O N and C of one cent. Rotational I was thinking…

    Look at this eagle!

    Eagle from Natty Bumpo chingnachcook times during French occupancy carved upon a 25 centime.

    what kind of doubling is on e Pluribus unum?

    Exquisite flow lines. Flow lines indicate the coin was struck while molten hot, allowing metal to freely flow while cooling and shaping. Rhodes demonstrates some of the finest craftsmanship for coinage of the b/c era. Does Ngc remove from bezels?

    Die polishing is apparent. What is peculiar is the definition of the strike and the devices. Usually a rusted die presents low quality.

    What kind of a grade would you say this coin is?

    Remnants of curls
  17. Melior Invenidiste
    Lol lip balm!? I noticed remnants of curls present mid neck, and a recut two in the date.
  18. Melior Invenidiste
    This almost looks like a working die state
  19. Melior Invenidiste
    Recutting on the nose, lips, and chin. O-112 new die pairing? R 7?
  20. Melior Invenidiste
    Portuguese? Need help identifying please.

    At first I thought it might be a die bubble… but it’s just too well defined.
  22. Melior Invenidiste
    Well that’s not very helpful.
  23. Melior Invenidiste
    What do those little lines indicate. I agree it’s a fake, but does that have to do with the manufacturing process? Weighs 13grams.
  24. Melior Invenidiste
    Weight 13grams and it tests as gold.

    The thing that strikes me as off is the machine doubling in the date, and the tiny parallel lines on the surface of the coin… milled?
