As the book was a compilation by five main authors and several prominent contributors, they decided to do away with the tradition of naming after an author. I do feel a little bad for the early dime people, who should have had different designations. My preference would have been for EUSD, instead.</p><p><br /></p><p>The numbers&#039; order were assigned based upon what the authors could surmise based upon a number of factors; prior use of involved dies, sure states, mint warrants, etc. The variety grids in EUSD very clearly show a pattern of distribution that must have been quite satisfying to a room of authors heavily involved in technical professions![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
