<p>[QUOTE="Curtis, post: 8277546, member: 26430"]Donna, I think what you've said about your coin and Dattari is about right. I think what's actually going on is that the plates were switched. Yours is dated L - ς (Year 6) but it's rubbing was switched with the L - B (Year 2). Since the B (Dattari 2429, Dattari-Savio 2431) should come before the ς (Dattari 2431, Dattari-Savio 2429), I think the 1901 catalog is correct, but that someone mixed up these photos, either Savio or Dattari's daughter (who edited plates at some point).</p><p><br /></p><p>I couldn't get them all in one photo, but here is the bottom of plate 117 (two photos, mostly overlapping except at the far left / far right). The Phoenix coins are numbered 2428, 2429, 2430, 8290, 2431, 2432, 2433 (the 8290 being the only one added between 1901 and 1913 -- the best I've been able to tell about the higher-numbered ones).</p><p><br /></p><p>(These and more photos -- 5 total, including the ones of your coin alone, most of them redundant with at least one other -- here: <a href="https://imgur.com/a/dhy4rLH" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://imgur.com/a/dhy4rLH" rel="nofollow">https://imgur.com/a/dhy4rLH</a> )</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1461576[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
