This coin has the closed "O" and also has the die scratch in the letter E of ONE and D in DOLLAR. It also has the die chip on the ear. nlp

I guess that that settles that then I guess. By the way Nip, what were Larry Briggs' words when you laid this coin in his hand?

It's still sitting in my safe. Larry hasn't returned two of my morgans yet that are somewhat lost and I haven't sent any more coins in yet til they are found. I believe one went to LVA and probably got shuffled around. Worse case I should see him personally at a show in 6 weeks. nlp

zeewol - no, I don't know that stuff either. I suppose if I ever get into silver dollars I'll learn it, but right now I prefer just straight bullion - ASEs, Engelhard, J&M

Thanks for the moral support Waredu. I imagine that when the time comes, it will be easier for you than it is for me. (I not too smart, maybe that is what makes it hard for me). I see a lot of folks who are able to grasp the concepts rather easily though.

1878's can be daunting with all the design changes that year. Leroy did a pretty good job of sequencing the numbers along the lines of the design changes. You can make attribution much easier if you follow an "eye checklist" of sorts. Here's how I do it ... read left to right.

Z,

Nope, I'll share this openly. Here's the rest of it that I posted about a year ago (with corrections). This is also over on VamWorld in the Attribution 101 area. Use this with the above eye chart and you should be able to narrow the 1878-P search to 20 or less varieties (far fewer if you have a major PUP like a broken 'N' and 'M'). The more you use it, the easier it gets.
