[QUOTE="Insider, post: 2389668, member: 24314"]I forgot to add this to my post#41 Make notes of what you see. At the moment, I don't know of anyone except for you who is studying these coins. Seems that is the way it has always been. For example, it took at least a hundred years to document the "naked eye" hub design changes on Shield Nickels. I just learned of them in the 1990's twenty years after becoming a professional numismatist mostly because I never studied the coins or never looked at them closely even. It took someone else to write/photo them. Same with many varieties. My suggestion right now is to pick a few easily seen characteristics (AM's + ??) and track them. You can add more later. Who knows, you may generate a little more interest here and it will not take another hundred years to "plot" these hubs.
