<p>[QUOTE=&quot;benhur767, post: 2915973, member: 36818&quot;]You&#039;re not cheating as long as you acknowledge the source. It&#039;s research! And you&#039;re expanding our knowledge of the series by illustrating a previously-unknown die link. What I find very helpful in understanding the relationships between dies is to see them in the form of a graph showing their relationship. It&#039;s like a genealogy chart. Put all your relatives in a list format and yeah, you get that they&#039;re related. But the relationships are so much more comprehensible when placed into a family tree with graphical connections. It&#039;s like the difference between a list describing the physical features of a place and studying a map. The map helps bring the place to life by orienting the landscape.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here&#039;s a question I have about references like this: are the numbers for the different obverse and reverse dies (for example: O1, R5, etc.) randomly assigned by the author of the reference? In other words, does a particular reverse die being labeled as R1 or R2 depend on the order the author decided to place them in? Or is there a more systematic way to determine this?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
