1862 PCGS

SOLD P-1.  The 1862 Variety 1 Plate Coin in the Web Book.  Obverse 3 of this die pairing features a possible misplaced digit at the bust point.  The most important feature of the offered coin is the development of the large Reverse C cud.  Only two examples of this die pairing, including this coin, are known to have developed the Reverse C cud.  All die pairings that develop cuds are extremely scarce to rare, with mint state examples exceedingly rare.  Special consideration should be warranted for this example.  Click on the following images of the Reverse C cud and PCGS slab to enlarge:
1862 F15 SOLD P-6.  Reverse H of this die pairing exhibits Class IV Hub Doubling.  Strictly original and conservatively graded. Variety 6 represents a top 100 variety based on the doubled die reverse.
