[QUOTE="Marshall, post: 1503743, member: 21705"]Nice pickups. The S-219 is nice and I have no problems with it's attribution. The S-18 is a bit different. The three short hairs with a long hair below along with spacing of LIBERTY above the portrait make Obverse 2 look right. But the Reverse is giving me a problem. The spacing of ES appears wider to me than on Reverses A (S-18) or B (S-19). It actually appears closer to Reverse LL (NC-8) to me. I may be wrong, but it deserves a closer look. Here are photos for comparison, but it is not an attempt to be definative. Rev A[IMG]http://i788.photobucket.com/albums/yy168/MBryant31958/ReverseA.jpg[/IMG]Rev B[IMG]http://i788.photobucket.com/albums/yy168/MBryant31958/ReverseB.jpg[/IMG] Subject[IMG]http://i788.photobucket.com/albums/yy168/MBryant31958/Subject.jpg[/IMG]Rev LL[IMG]http://i788.photobucket.com/albums/yy168/MBryant31958/ReverseLLNC-8.jpg[/IMG] ps I can rule out Rev B due to the stems crossing BELOW the ribbon knott. pss I can rule out Reverse LL (I have since relabeled as MM because of duplication with distinct reverse of NC-6) because of spacing of RI, wide on Subject - close on LL. psss other markers are consistent with Reverse A (wide RI, Right of center stem crossing below knot, small berries below high loops), but the ES spacing just doesn't look right. Perhaps the damage there is affecting my perspective.[/QUOTE]
