    Instead of adding to my original post concerning this topic I'm starting a new thread.
    Why?
    Because I had indicated the wrong issue in the title originally.
    But here's the link to it:

    I've got all the LM numbers now except for the one.
    Here's the results of the 14 coins I have in my set:
    - Four are rated R-1 (common)
    - Eight are rated R-2 (fairly common)
    - One is rated R-6 (very rare; 13-30 known)
    - One still to be identified

    One other positive result is that what I thought was an 1836, Large 5, turned to to be an 1836, 3 over inverted 3, worth about 50% more.

    With all this practice I'm now prepared to try VAM varieties for Morgan and Peace dollars.

    As for the one I can't pin down, here's the pics.
    It's supposed to be an 1835, Small Date, Large 5 (which I agree with) but I can't come up with the LM number.

    Well, we certainly had a great time with the 1829 LM-11 r.6 ! Hopefully we'll have another thriller with this 1835. When I get home I'll give it a go.

    Attribution - fun for the whole family !

    Yeh, it looks like the 1829 was the only real goodie.
    I've got them in an NGC Registry Set.
    Also I have my Classic Head half cents there too.
    I need to finish editing the pictures so that I can load those into the Registry Sets.

    That's 11 sets over there now.
    My type set is hanging around at number 16 or 17. That's my REAL pride and joy.
