Comments
(en) 1837 Liberty--Not One Cent, Low-29, HT-44, R.3, Although the similarity of the various 1837 Not One Cent designs suggest a common maker, the engraving quality of the portrait differs dramatically for each obverse die. Not is the Low-29 Liberty rather homely, but her cheek is in high relief, which characteristically weakens the O in ONE and the CE in CENT.
