Dates also come in larger date and small. As well as in half dimes large 5 C . and small 5 c. Mint marks also can be a large O or a small o on some coins.Those of us whom get into die marriages  and such use all these items to determine  what obv. Was used with what rev.Some dates there's  only one or two, other dates there maybe quite a few.So you may collect  a series by date others collect by date and die marriages  variety .Google Bust half dime die marriages . There are 123 different  pairs,of a series  of 1829-1837. This also determine  the R Factor as some are very common  other not.I also almost  forgot LG *'s and small *'s.[/QUOTE]
