[QUOTE="Paddy54, post: 7966556, member: 19250"]I'm going to attribute this specimen and explain while doing so you can try and follow using the sight above. I try and read the coin first....I allow my eyes to look for "pups" = pick up points! Since I collect the series I am acustom to first look for large details that jump out...then narrow it down by the smaller ones. This 33 has a huge clash in front of the face. Date position, stars position and repunched or re cut., on the reverse, S to s position S in states S in EPU how they match up. The scroll position, the 5 C . It position,and the arrows their position in reference to the last A in America. Next I go to the site I gave you...and begin putting together the points first the obv. Then the rev. Go have a look at the sight now>>> For the 33 there are 3 obv.s I look at all 3 for the most possible match. Looks like obv. #2 as yup theres the clash in front of her face. Date yup the 83 is very close which of the choices fit? Yes it is the second obv. As the above match up perfectly, but they match All 3? Yes of course as all 3 are the second obv die. Next the rev. Plenty of major pups to id which reverse is the correct marriage? Using the pups I listed above for the reverse pups I now start to id all those pups. Now I am going to first look at the arrows heads looking at all 4 possible reverse dies The arrows touch th A in America. Next the 5 C . Does the 5 match is its flag long or short? Then narrowing it down point by point matching one can see that this specimen is an Obv,2 ~ rev. U ~LM~ 4 now go to the chart and find the R factor well theres several from an R 2 to an R 5. Now the fun part...die remarriages-! This is where you begin to refine all the points....and when everything alines bingo your answer. I am going to warn you!!! H ~10's are habit forming! I currently have two double slab boxes 12 inches long double rows of half dimes...im guessing from 1828-1872 somewhere in the neighborhood of 275 to 300 last count. There's a few members here Nathan is one who caught the h 10 bug from me....John Call A well known member and dealer ,well we quite offten do business as he knows the series Sells well....especially to me lol. Once you play with doing attributions they get easier, but mistakes can be made so again recheck your pups. I hope this post helps you discover a series thats so fun to collect. Its also a series thats over looked by many,,, no problem more H~10s for me. LoL[/QUOTE]
