12avionics Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 Can you please explain to me if you can, how many of the 1869 over 8 Two Cent pieces exist? If I am trying to complete my competitive set do I need one of these coins. Can you give me any idea of when the last one was sold? I have been looking one for a few years and I have never seen one listed for sale anywhere and even a Google search doesn't have any information on this coin. Any help would be appreciated.

Member: Seasoned Veteran DWLange Posted December 3, 2020 Member: Seasoned Veteran Share Posted December 3, 2020 There is no 1869/8 variety. This is just one of the many "overdates" that Walter Breen described and which have since proved to be simply repunched dates or defective numerals.

12avionics Posted December 3, 2020 Author Share Posted December 3, 2020 I want to thank you very much for making that clear. Since it is not a Variety, it no longer is in my "Want" list . RonnieR131 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RWB Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 When Walter Breen had no facts, he invented them....lots of them. He's likely chuckling at the continuing joke from his prison cell in Hades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RWB Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 Notice Mr. Lange's title at NGC. That should be very reassuring. bsshog40 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
