<p>[QUOTE=&quot;CoinCorgi, post: 6440784, member: 88934&quot;]By my definition (mine, not necessarily anyone elses), there are 8 types in the seated liberty dime set. I listed 7 in my previous post. Here are the 8...</p><p><br /></p><p>1) No Stars, No Drapery, Tilted Shield, 2.67g</p><p>2) Stars, No Drapery, Tilted Shield, 2.67g</p><p>3) Stars, Drapery, Upright Shield, 2.67g</p><p>4) Stars, Drapery, Upright Shield, Arrows, 2.49g</p><p>5) Stars, Drapery, Upright Shield, 2.49g</p><p><span style="color: #ff0000">6) Legend, 2.49g</span></p><p>7) Legend, Arrows, 2.50g</p><p>8) Legend, 2.50g</p><p><br /></p><p>Arguably you could eliminate #3 (or #5) and #6 (or #8) (or even #3, #5, #6 and #8) and still have an example of all the different variables (just not all of the actual combinations of variables).</p><p><br /></p><p><u><b>Variable </b>: Variation</u></p><p><b>Stars </b>: None, Yes</p><p><b>Drapery </b>: No, Yes</p><p><b>Shield </b>: Tilted, Upright</p><p><b>Legend</b> : None/Stars, Yes</p><p><b>Arrows </b>: No, Yes</p><p><b>Weight </b>: 2.67g, 2.49g, 2.50g</p><p><br /></p><p>Also, a variable I chose to ignore, the mint mark location, hops up and down so it is either above or below the bow.</p><p><br /></p><p>And of course I am sure there are many other differences and varieties that I have not mentioned. I think I&#039;ve already gone overboard afterall, so I&#039;ll stop diggin this rabbit hole.</p><p><br /></p><p>For my type set I wanted as many O-mint examples as possible. There are O-mint examples of 7 of the 8 types (all but #7). I have 6 of them (#1, #2, #3, #4, #5, #8). The only O-mint example for type #6 is the 1860-O and it is rare (Numismedia currently lists this coin at $680 for a G4 example), and I&#039;m not interested at that price. It&#039;s not the rarest, but for me it&#039;s a no at this time.</p><p><br /></p><p>Blah blah blah...here are the pictures. Hoping to upgrade several of them.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1255314[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1255315[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
