[QUOTE="Marshall, post: 8166713, member: 21705"]Looks like it matched third from the left. I wish I could see the right foot to see if the pointed transition is on the comp. On the Subject coin, it appears that both the original blunter "tail" or right foot of the R is in the process of fading along the SW portion of the tail. This stage apparently does not last too long since most appear to have one or the other of the blunt tail or the sharper looking tail. Some early pointed tailed examples show roughness on the SW edge.[ATTACH=full]1426037[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1426039[/ATTACH] The emphasis of the composite photo was to show the changes to the peg leg and not the tail or right side so it was cut off. [ATTACH=full]1426052[/ATTACH] Now my survey is quite limited at this point, but please chime in with observations or comments. I'd really like to see another example of this transition as a proof of concept. Finding good close ups of the tail side isn't easy with most comps showing no close up or only the left side.[/QUOTE]
