1876-S
Hub Combo: Type 1/1
This is one of the most common of the dates and easily found in all conditions. These coins will likely trade at about a 30-40% discount to non-chopped examples.
Hub Combo: Type 1/2
While a slightly better combination than the 1/1, this is still very common and should trade at the same 30-40% discount from non-chopped.
Hub Combo: Type 2/2
While much scarcer than the type 1 obverses, this is not that difficult of a combo to find and carries little to no premium over the other hub combos.
Variety: Doubled Die Obverse
The “King of The Variety Set”, this coin is a rarity in any condition. A type 2/2 combination with obvious and immediately apparent doubling across the left side of the obverse. There are only a handful of known chopmarked examples; they would likely trade on par with non-chopped examples.
Variety: FS-301 Repunched Date
Another difficult type 2/2 variety, this coin shows a loop in the center of the six as a remnant of the first punched six. It’s unknown what price levels these might trade at; the sales venue likely plays a large role in determining any final variety premium.
Variety: Type 1/2 Large S
Yet another very scarce variety. All of the 76-S type 2 reverses feature a small s mintmark except for this variety and another. Population is unknown but likely fewer than twenty. Any premium or discount is heavily dependent on potential buyers and/or auction venue.

Variety: Type 2/2 Large S
The second 76-S type 2 reverse with a Large S. Population is unknown but likely fewer than 10. Any premium or discount is heavily dependent on potential buyers and/or auction venue.
Variety: Medium S Type 1
A very scarce variety. The easiest way to identify the correct variety is the missing period after FINE. The mintmark is smallish and oddly shaped; likely a reused punch from a half dollar. This variety is not widely known and likely carries little to no premium at this time.
