<p>[QUOTE="HammeredCoin, post: 2230833, member: 75598"]The colored dots on the chart represent each class of penny. Edward I pennies are broken down into 10 different classes and than those individual classes have their own sub classes and even sub sub classes. The chart shows the approximate date each class was minted. And the letters and symbols above show (very generally speaking) I'm what class those symbols/style of letters appear.</p><p><br /></p><p>Take the letter "E" for example. If you have a penny that shows the "E" in an open form (not closed off on the right hand side of the letter), than you know you have a coin from class 1 through 5 minted between 1279 and 1291. So it can give you a place to start when to correctly identify the class. Combine this with the other areas in which to focus (as I outlined above) and you can really start to narrow down the class of coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
