[QUOTE="catadc, post: 7895154, member: 103515"]This one has a flower-shaped ornament. [ATTACH=full]1362870[/ATTACH] I am not aware of any subcategories for Class I, and I do not believe that categorizing Class I will have any success. I am aware of subcategories for Class B that Zervos did at one point. Those do not have success either (my opinion). After reading about this split, I looked for class B-3, the rarest, and found 4 within one month. One is still for sale 6 months later (140 EUR in VF). I do not remember ever seeing Class B-5, but that might be because I never looked for it specifically. For some reason, only class A subtypes have some success. Even so, I did not see any recent work to update the tables in DO, although new types appear on the market. It was a try on the Forvm to keep track of those, and even that seems to have stopped.
