<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Amanda Varner, post: 1859225, member: 59002&quot;]Hello, my fellow CoinTalkers!</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m sorry I&#039;ve been absent for a bit, but January was an absolutely crazy month -- 6 flights and 4 coin shows later, I&#039;ve barely had a chance to breathe!&nbsp; Well, that aside, I have a confession to make ...</p><p><br /></p><p><i>I&#039;m not perfect.</i>&nbsp; It&#039;s shocking, I know.&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />&nbsp; Probably my single biggest weakness as a junior numismatist right now is my inability to rattle off lists of &quot;better date&quot; coins by series, and it&#039;s something that I&#039;ve been working on as I go.</p><p><br /></p><p>Of course, one of the main reasons I joined CT was for the amazing human-encyclopedias chock full of knowledge that frequent the forums, and with that in mind I have a littler personal project I would like to share with you all.&nbsp; I too have fallen victim to searching the internet for &quot;list of better date ____&quot; only to come up empty-handed, and often with a quip from someone to just get a Red Book and &quot;figure it out&quot;.&nbsp; Ironically, that is essentially what I did -- only with the gray sheets.</p><p><br /></p><p>I am someone who does the best learning visually, and so I decided to try to create a chart for Peace Dollars (because there aren&#039;t <i>too&nbsp; </i>many of them) to start with ... I&#039;ve shown it to the senior numismatists here at the shop, and they only made one or two corrections; but often the line between &quot;slightly better&quot; and &quot;better&quot;, or &quot;better&quot; and &quot;scare&quot; can be a bit of a subjective one, so I&#039;d like your opinions!&nbsp; Let&#039;s see what the majority of CoinTalk has to say!</p><p><br /></p><p>Take a look, and let me know what you think!</p><p><br /></p><p>I look forward to your critiques! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://lifeatthecoinshop.com/2014/02/04/amandas-peace-dollar-chart/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://lifeatthecoinshop.com/2014/02/04/amandas-peace-dollar-chart/" rel="nofollow">Amanda&#039;s Peace Dollar Chart</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
