[QUOTE="Marshall, post: 939531, member: 21705"]I'm impatient. Here's a guide to the Obverse Attribution of a 1798 EE Reverse where the date is too damaged or worn. [IMG]http://i788.photobucket.com/albums/yy168/MBryant31958/ReverseEEObverseAttribution.jpg[/IMG] The S-182 has a smooth HWH (Highest Wave of Hair) centered just RIGHT of the Right upright of R shown by the Orange line. The JHF (Junction of Hair and Forehead) is RIGHT of the right side of the upright of T shown by the Red line. The PC (Point of Curl) is under the outer curve of B. The S-183 has a peaked HWH under the left side of the upright of R. The JHF is centered at the right side of the upright of T. The bases of the I and B on both these are close with the B a little higher on the S-182 and about level on the S-183. PC under inner curve of B. The S-184 has an in-between peaked and smooth HWH which is centered just LEFT of the left upright of R. The JHF is just left of the right side of T. The bases of I and B are both more distant and angled than on the prior two obverses. PC under inner curve of B. And here are blowups of the subject coin.
