This 1832 is a remarriage of the dies. The obv. Is a #2 the rev. Is a U.</p><p>Now the obv. Is based on star placements either closeness, the tip maybe pointing to a denticals or between them,also date placement or style.</p><p>The rev. A dead give away is the recur or repunched &quot;O&quot; in of as well die cracks.</p><p>Now the rev. U Was again reused in 1833 strikes.</p><p>What seperated the 11.1 and 11.2 is a simple die crack. Notice the crack that runs from the scroll at the M and up though the A in America to the rim.</p><p>There are 5 known obv. Dies used in 1832 and 4 reverse dies used to strike this year. They are M,PT,&amp; U.</p><p>Reverse U used on&nbsp; LM 10 LM 11.1 11.2 and again in 1833 LM 4 which is an R 2.</p><p>What determine the R factor is the number of strikes using the the #2 obv. Die,and the number of strikes by using one of the other reverse dies.</p><p>Which are the following LM 2. LM 6&nbsp; LM 9 and the pair LM 11</p><p>This is what to me makes it fun hunting down the die pairs and noting the differences .</p><p>Then you can get into the survival factors meaning how many are left .</p><p>If the mintage was low to begin with then you start to determine out of the 4 pairs listed above and the fact that LM 11 is split into the 11.1 and 11.2 you can see why the R Factors are so high. Both are R 5 coins. The other 3 pairs are as follows</p><p>LM 2&nbsp; is an R 3</p><p>LM 6 is an&nbsp; R 4</p><p>LM 9 again like the LM 11 is a remarriage LM9.1 an R 6 and the&nbsp; LM 9.2 an R 7.</p><p>Maybe confusing to some but if you&#039;re interested in reading and learning more about these fantastic little coins visit one of the best sites on this series at everythinghalfdimes.&nbsp; Google and book mark the site you&#039;ll be glad you did.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
